MAIN SPONSORS

The Hong Kong and China Gas Company Limited

Founded in 1862, The Hong Kong and China Gas Company Limited (Towngas) is Hong Kong’s first public utility. Today, it
is one of the largest energy suppliers in Hong Kong, operating with world-class corporate management and leading-edge
business practices. For the past years, Towngas has grown with Hong Kong, evolving from the simple gas company
supplying fuel for street lamps to its current leading position in the energy industry of mainland China and beyond.

A major reason for its success has been the reputation that the Company has established over the years, enabling it to win the
trust of the people of Hong Kong. Towngas supplies town gas to over 1.9 million customers in Hong Kong and provides a full
range of gas applications to cater to their needs. Expanding its business horizons in recent years, the Company has diversified
its business into telecommunications, building services, engineering and new eco-energies, among many others.

Towngas made its foray into mainland China in 1994. Currently, it has more than 260 projects, including piped city-gas
projects, upstream and midstream developments, water and wastewater treatment schemes, natural gas filling stations, as
well as new energy exploration and utilisation ventures, across 26 provinces, autonomous regions and municipalities.

Sustainability is central to Towngas’ identity as a business and is critical to all aspects of its operations. Whenever the
Company makes a decision, its environmental, social and economic impacts are considered. This emphasis on sustainability
is enshrined in the Company’s vision: “To be Asia’s leading clean energy supplier and quality service provider, with a focus
on innovation and environmental friendliness”.

The Hong Kong Jockey Club

Founded in 1884, The Hong Kong Jockey Club is a world-class racing club that acts continuously for the betterment
of our society. The Club has a unique integrated business model, comprising racing and racecourse entertainment, a
membership club, responsible sports wagering and lottery, charities and community contribution. Through this model,
the Club generates economic and social value for the community and supports the Government in combatting illegal
gambling.

The Club is committed to working for a greener future. By reducing its carbon footprint, making optimum use of its
resources and working hand-in-hand with its many community partners, it aims to improve its business performance and
contribute to a greener, more sustainable society.

A major part of the Club’s support for sustainability is delivered through its Charities Trust. For example, in 2018 the
Trust joined hands with The Chinese University of Hong Kong to establish the Hong Kong Chapter of the Sustainable
Development Solutions Network, which coordinates initiatives in support of the United Nation’s Sustainable Development
Goals. As one of the world’s top ten charity donors, the Club will continue to tackle environmental challenges, protect our
environment and promote a green lifestyle through innovative, multi-sectoral collaboration.
