Elizabeth Quat

Elizabeth Quat, BBS, JP (Chinese: 葛珮帆, born 23 December 1966) is a Hong Kong politician from the pro-Beijing Democratic Alliance for the Betterment and Progress of Hong Kong. She is a co-founder of the Internet Professional Association (iProA), a director of the World Summit Award and chief executive officer of CB Strategic Investment. Quat graduated from Greenwich University, Hawaii, a defunct diploma mill.

Quat was elected in 2012 through New Territories East constituency in the Hong Kong Legislative Council. She was re-elected in 2016 through the same constituency. She was re-elected in 2021 to represent Election Committee constituency with 1,322 votes. She has also served as an elected member of the Sha Tin District Council from 2008 to 2015.

In December 2025, she was re-elected again through Election Committee constituency with 1,321 votes.

Quat received her Bachelor of Business Administration, Master of Business Administration, and Doctor of Philosophy in Management from Greenwich University, Hawaii, an unaccredited institution. In 2008, she was certified as a scuba diving instructor and is supporting photographer in a research group within the Ocean Geographic Society.

In 2000, Quat founded the Internet Professional Association and was president of the group until 2006. She became the director of World Summit Award in 2003. Quat founded the company CB Strategic Investment in 2004 and has been the CEO since then. In 2005, she help founded eHealth Consortium. She was appointed as director for Hong Kong Education City in 2006. In 2007, she found and became the president for the Energy Saving & Environment Concern Alliance. Quat also founded Green ICT Consortium in 2009 and is the chairman of the organisation.

In November 2020, Quat said that a face mask manufacturer was challenging the Hong Kong national security law by producing yellow-coloured masks.

In December 2020, Quat asked the government to consider a "lockdown order" for foreign domestic helpers on their day off, claiming that social distancing violations were "getting out of control" by them. In response, the Secretary for Labour and Welfare, Law Chi-kwong, dismissed Quat's idea and said that her suggestion would be inappropriate and discriminatory.

In January 2021, the Hong Kong judiciary dismissed Quat's idea, in which she suggested that a council should be used to determine criminal sentencing due to a perceived lack of consistency in penalties. The judiciary responded that current appeals and reviews were effective. In February 2021, it was reported that Quat again criticized the judiciary, claiming that the Department of Justice was not making progress in prosecuting those arrested under the National Security Law.
