23 Dec 2022


PolyU welcomes the Hong Kong Innovation and Technology Development Blueprint promulgated by the HKSAR Government, which sets out eight major strategies under the four broad development directions, establishing a clear development path and strategies for Hong Kong's I&T development over the next five to 10 years.  It is encouraging that local universities’ leading position in R&D, under the blueprint strategies, would be further strengthened in order to enhance the I&T ecosystem.
Prof. Christopher CHAO, Vice President (Research and Innovation) and PReCIT Director of PolyU, said in an SCMP interview that markets are key for the ecosystem for start-ups.  He suggested the government adopt products and technologies innovated by local starts up and speed up the application process for its funding schemes to help start-ups.  He also advised investors to be more risk-taking when funding start-ups.
