ABOUT
mensa HONG KONG
HISTORY.
Mensa Hong Kong was formed in 1987 by a small group of expatriates and local Chinese who had gained Mensa membership while living overseas. Since then, membership has steadily increased to more than 3,000 nowadays.
COMPOSITION.
Many of the original expat members have returned to their home countries, and now more than two-thirds of all members are locals. In Mensa HK, the membership embraces a wide variety of interests and professions, including doctors, dentists, architects, lawyers, and executives from the IT, import/export trading, and media sectors. The youngest member is 4 years old, and the oldest is over 70.
ACTIVITIES.
Activities are varied with an accent on the social side and a lot of what we do is the same as what other Hong Kongers do - dinners, BBQs, hiking, junk trips and even karaoke evenings! However, at a typical Mensa event, you can always be sure to meet new and interesting people. We also organize talks, games evenings, presentations, and debates on topical issues whenever the opportunity arises. If you are new to Hong Kong, it is a great way to meet new friends., and a lot of what we do is the same as what other people in Hong Kong do - dinners, BBQs, hiking, junk trips,
