ISE Students Win Merit Prize in Innovation & IT at the 11th Hong Kong University Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition

Our students recently participated in the 11th Hong Kong University Student Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition (2025), organized by the Hong Kong New Generation Cultural Association. This prestigious competition serves as a leading platform to foster creativity, technological advancement, and entrepreneurial spirit among university students in Hong Kong.

The competition team—comprising Leo Matthias Sturm (ISE), Yin Zifu Ivy (ISE), Lau Ho Wai Justin (ISE), Fung Yik Hei, Ho Tsz Ming, and Ko Tsun Ming—was supervised by Dr. Yuk Ming Tang. The team received the Merit Prize in the Information Technology category for their outstanding project, DyslexAI 「讀寫易AI」.

Their award-winning project leverages artificial intelligence to support children with dyslexia, providing highly accurate and personalized training through an intelligent platform. Achieving an impressive 99.5% classification accuracy using deep learning models and multi-modal data analysis, the system offers a non-invasive and effective solution to enhance learning outcomes, particularly for students with special educational needs.

We are proud to congratulate our team on this achievement. Their dedication, creativity, and teamwork exemplify our commitment to advancing socially meaningful technologies and nurturing the next generation of innovators.
