Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group Named Official Sponsor of The 15th National Games of the People’s Republic of China
Hong Kong, China, 10 June 2025 – Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group Limited ("Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group", "Chow Tai Fook Jewellery", the "Group" or the "Company"; SEHK stock code: 1929), the leading Chinese jeweller, announced today that it serves as the exclusive sponsor from the jewellery industry for the 15th National Games of the People Republic of China (the “National Games”) and the 12th National Games for Persons with Disabilities & the 9th National Special Olympic Games, the People’s Republic of China. As part of this sponsorship, the Group also leads the design and crafting of the official medals for China's premier multi-sport events. Ms Sonia Cheng, Vice-chairman, and Mr. Kent Wong, Managing Director of Chow Tai Fook Jewellery Group attended the 15th National Games Medal Unveiling Ceremony held today in Guangzhou, where the official medals for competition and mass participation events were revealed. The 15th National Games will take place in Guangdong, Hong Kong, and Macau from 9 to 21 November 2025.
The National Games, held every four years, is China's most prestigious sporting event, showcasing a vast array of the nation's finest athletic talents. This year is particularly noteworthy and relevant, with the games to be held for the first time across three cities in the Greater Bay Area – the region in which Chow Tai Fook Jewellery's legacy began. The Group's sponsorship demonstrates its unwavering commitment to supporting Chinese athletics, a relationship that has flourished over the years. As the leading Chinese jeweller renowned for its creative mastery, Chow Tai Fook Jewellery is deeply rooted with a strong presence in China, creating an increasing impact globally and resonating with audiences beyond its home markets.
Exclusive Sponsor from Jewellery Industry Chow Tai Fook Jewellery’s collaboration with the 15th National Games represents a significant milestone in the brand’s ongoing transformation journey. As the exclusive sponsor from the jewellery industry, the Group’s appointment as the official designer and creator of the 15th National Games medals is a testament to its leadership in design and aesthetics excellence. The Group is honoured to team up with Guangzhou Academy of Fine Arts on the design of the medals, which prove to be a dynamic exchange of design expertise and creative synergy.
Each medal, designed with the highest degree of precision, celebrates the dedication and excellence of China's finest athletes, while bridging the realm of sports and cultural heritage. The Chow Tai Fook Jewellery design team, in line with its storied reputation, has exhibited exceptional meticulousness, refining the medal designs through countless iterations in pursuit of perfection.
Taking inspiration from the 15th National Games’ official emblem, the medals of the competition and mass participation events feature a three-layered hierarchical 3D structure, expressed through regional floral emblems from the three host cities, symbolising unity and boundless vitality. Three sets of concentric Möbius rings on the outer edge represent connection and endless possibilities, and the edge of the medal is adorned with 66 ridges, paying tribute to the 66-year history of the National Games. In addition, the wave-like patterns on both medals delineate the convergence of the rivers across Guangdong, Hong Kong and Macau. The ring of each medal features a "Tongxin Knot" inspired by the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge, in which a steel rainbow is transformed into a cultural totem and emerges as a symbol of the creativity and cultural harmony of the Greater Bay Area.
The medal design of the competition events captures the collective spirit of connection and growth within the Greater Bay Area. The Games' official emblem complemented by the patterns of the peony, known as the King of Flowers which also symbolises the flourishing Greater Bay Area buoyed by China. These design elements seamlessly blend the region's rich heritage with its modern identity at the same time as celebrating athletic prowess and reinforcing the Group’s commitment to showcasing the beauty and richness of Chinese culture to the world.

For decades, the Group has championed and supported national sports, intertwining cultural heritage with forward-thinking development. The Group took a major step forward in 2022 by establishing the Cheng Kar-Shun Champion Development Foundation, which provided RMB 120 million to the Beijing Sport University Education Foundation.
