Mei Ling Ng, MA, MBA — Judge

Mei Ling Ng is an internationally recognised authority on Relationship Intelligence, human connectivity, and high-stakes social psychology. As architect of Affinity Forum, she has spent decades advising C-suite executives, ultra-high-net-worth individuals, and institutional leaders on navigating complex relational ecosystems and mitigating interpersonal corporate risk — work that bridges psychological expertise with corporate governance to strengthen trust and institutional reputation.

She is a bestselling author of the Navigating Relationships series, a four-time Top 10 Writer for the Hong Kong Economic Times, and has served as a Soft Skills Lecturer at VTC's PEAK College. Her civic record — Charter President of the Rotary Club of Homantin Hill and former Committee Member of UNESCO Hong Kong — reflects a sustained commitment to community leadership.

Ng's blend of governance-focused advisory work and deep civic engagement gives her a distinctive lens on trust, reputation, and stakeholder relationships — spanning both the "S" and "G" of ESG — making her a strong addition to the judging panel.
