To inject new momentum into the I&T industry, PolyU and JS Global Lifestyle Company Limited (JS Global) have signed an MoU, which will see them jointly engage in research and development, as well as nurturing I&T talents.

 

Leveraging PolyU’s strengths in applied research and JS Global’s leading position in the small household appliance market, the two parties will collaborate in three core areas, namely aerospace technology and its applications, future food, and smart living.

 

To help meet JS Global’s technological needs, PolyU will provide resources in areas such as collaborative research, patent licensing, and project cooperation.

 

In addition to fostering the transformation of research excellence into real-world applications, the partnership will also explore the feasibility of establishing the “PolyU-JS Global Scholarship Programme” to nurture I&T talents through offering scholarships and internships opportunities, with the aim of enhancing the quality of talent in the Greater Bay Area’s I&T ecosystem.
