David Fong Man-hung, JP, BBS, is a Hong Kong businessman and the Managing Director of Hip Shing Hong (Holdings) Company Limited, one of Hong Kong's longest-standing property development companies. He is a third-generation member of the founding family, which established its property business in the mid-20th century.

Fong received a global education: he earned an Economics degree from Simon Fraser University in Canada in 1980 and an MBA from The University of Hong Kong two years later. His career began in the family's property business in the United States, where he worked for a decade in San Francisco and the Bay Area. This international experience provided him with crucial insights into modern management practices and data-driven decision-making, which he brought back to Hong Kong to modernize the traditional family firm.

David Fong returned to Hip Shing Hong in 1994, partly at his father's request to see what was going on as the Hong Kong handover was approaching. He faced the challenge of adapting to the traditional family business culture while simultaneously pushing for modernized management practices and IT system upgrades.

In 2009, he assumed the role of Managing Director, where he led a major initiative to upgrade the company's 200 properties with new and smart technologies to boost competitiveness. He strategically diversified the portfolio into serviced apartments and hotels and spearheaded the revitalization of industrial buildings into arts quarters (e.g., in Wong Chuk Hang). Fong is noted for his commitment to corporate social responsibility, leasing 10 percent of revitalized office space at concessionary rates to support young artists and start-ups.

David Fong's social impact is structural and civic, focused on urban revitalization and supporting the arts community in Hong Kong. His commitment to offering commercial space at concessionary rates is a direct and structural contribution to the arts and entrepreneurial ecosystem.

He is a major philanthropist for education and medical research, serving as Chairman of the Fong Shu Fook Tong Foundation and supporting the HKBU School of Chinese Medicine. His commitment to integrity and values has earned him national honors, including the Bronze Bauhinia Star by the HKSAR Government.

David Fong maintains the highly professional, refined style of a Canadian-educated Hong Kong executive. His attire is consistently formal and high-quality, favoring tailored suits. His aesthetic reflects a blend of traditional values and modern, data-driven management.

His luxury is the immense security and financial power derived from his family's property empire. His life is defined by the stewardship of this long-standing legacy and his passion for leveraging real estate for civic and artistic benefit.
