During their visit to the UK, Professor Ho and Professor Mok visited the Oxford Global Society at Wolfson College of the University of Oxford to explore opportunities for programme collaboration in the fields of philosophy, politics and economics. They also visited the School of Management at University College London, where the two universities will co-host a postgraduate summer school programme in June 2025. Professor Ho also shared insights on promoting sustainability leadership and education at the Institute of Education at University College London.

In response to the Hong Kong government's ongoing push for the internationalisation of higher education, HSUHK is collaborating with the Centre for Global Higher Education at the University of Oxford to organise the Annual Conference of the Centre for Global Higher Education from 3 to 4 April 2025 in Oxford. Professor Ho and Professor Mok will engage in a panel discussion which will examine how growing geopolitical issues are affecting international student mobility and international academic collaborations. Leading scholars from Japan, Korea, Mainland China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and the UK will also join the panel discussion. Professor Ho will also deliver a speech to promote the latest developments in Hong Kong as a leading international higher education hub and share the unique "Liberal + Professional" education model of HSUHK.
