EnviroTech Foundation (ETF) is established in 2007. We are a Hong Kong based government recognized charitable organization (File No: 91/9253) dedicated to empowering sustainable development with environmental technologies in Hong Kong and the Pearl River Delta in mainland China. The inspiration for the foundation is derived from Founding President, Dr William CG Ko who devotes his lifetime service to Hong Kong’s water supplies, in improving the quality and quantity of water supply from the East River. He participated in all the 4 stages of improvement in the East River water supply. As an engineer helping Assistant Director (AD) Lau in Stage I, as a senior engineer helping AD Leung in Stage II, as the AD himself in Stage III and as the Director of Water Supplies in Stage IV. He has thus been called “Father of East River Supply to Hong Kong”.

We are an advocate for sustainable business solutions and a platform for exploring the latest development and best practices of low carbon and other environmental technologies. Our vision is to connect people, ideas and resources to solving climate change challenges and environmental problems in both Hong Kong and our motherland – the People’s Republic of China.
