Botrich Inc. proudly announced its support for the official launch of the 2026 Canada Youth Business Proposal Competition, hosted by the Canada Youth Funding Association (CYFA). The February 21 launch event marks the beginning of a nationwide initiative designed to inspire creativity, entrepreneurial thinking, and structured innovation among young Canadians.
The 2026 CYFA Youth Business Proposal Competition serves as both a formal program opening and a gateway for students to explore real-world entrepreneurship. The competition provides a platform where ideas can be developed into actionable business proposals, helping participants transform imagination into practical strategy.
Empowering Youth Through Structured Opportunity
The competition introduces students to proposal development, evaluation standards, and mentorship pathways. Participants are guided through the fundamentals of building a business concept, including identifying market needs, structuring financial thinking, and communicating ideas clearly.
Beyond competition, the program emphasizes confidence-building, responsibility, and teamwork. Students from diverse backgrounds are encouraged to think critically and present their ideas in a structured, professional format. Through this process, they gain exposure to real-world expectations and leadership skills.
Hong Wei Liao’s Commitment to Youth Leadership
As Chairman of the Botrich Family Wealth Heritage and Development Center, Hong Wei Liao has long advocated for youth education and leadership development as foundational pillars of long-term societal growth.
With extensive experience in global wealth strategy, cross-border compliance, and international business planning, Ms. Liao believes that sustainable economic progress begins with disciplined thinking and early mentorship.
“Providing young people with structured platforms to develop their ideas strengthens more than business skills,” Ms. Liao noted at the event. “It cultivates confidence, accountability, and vision. These qualities shape responsible leaders who contribute meaningfully to society.”
Her philanthropic leadership reflects this belief. In addition to serving as Life Honorary Chair of the Canada Youth Funding Association, Ms. Liao actively supports youth education and women’s leadership initiatives across North America and internationally. Her longstanding contributions to community development have earned her numerous recognitions, including the Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal, the Queen Elizabeth II Platinum Jubilee Pin, the Global Women of Excellence Award, the Ontario Provincial 10-Year Service Award, and the King Charles III Coronation Medal.
