Professional Forum (Chinese: 專業會議), formerly and still widely known as The Alliance (Chinese: 泛聯盟), is a political group in Hong Kong, composed of five members of the Legislative Council who ran as independents in functional constituencies in the 2004 election. Four were members of the so-called "Breakfast Group", led by Eric Li. Bernard Chan was appointed member of the Executive Council on 12 October 2004.

The Group renamed itself Professional Forum following the 2008 elections. The Forum consists of four members, Abraham Shek Lai-him, Patrick Lau Sau-shing, Raymond Ho Chung-tai and Priscilla Leung Mei-Fun.[1]

In October 2012, the group formed the Business and Professionals Alliance for Hong Kong with other LegCo members from the pro-business sectors.
