I was honor to be invited to join
the CSE Discovery and Innovation Gala 2017 organized by the Cooperative
Education Centre, College of Science and Engineering (CSE) of CityU on 21 Jun
2017. The gala would be held from 21 to
22 Jun 2017 and it aimed to showcase CityU research capability to the
industrial community, and to open up further opportunities for collaborations,
industrial investments or donations, bringing benefit to the University. The Gala of this year is included in the 20th
Anniversary celebration programme of the HKSAR.
During the cocktail, I met the
honour guest Dr. David Chung who is EngD cohort and Dr. Winnie S.M. Tang
(Founder and Chairman, esri). I told her
I used her GIS software in PolyU long time ago.
I also met my first boss Mr.
Dominic Lam (CEO, CMATCL) (Left 2), my degree final year project supervisor Prof
Lawrence Wu (Professor, AP Dept., CityU) (Left 3) and my good research friend
Prof. Michael Lam (Professor, BCH Dept., CityU) (Left 1).
In the beginning, Prof. Way Kuo (President,
CityU) gave a welcome speech. He told us
a good new that our US Patent is number one in Hong Kong. CityU students were continuously innovated and
one of projects was design a wheelchair used on regular road and car. Finally, he said today is Summer solstice and
enjoy it.
The Gala guest was Dr. David
Chung (Under Secretary for Innovation and Technology, ITB, HKSAR) and he said
government focused and encouraged STEM education for future economy. He added CE aimed to enhance knowledge
transfer through Midstream
Research Programme for Universities (MRP) from research project to commercial
use. Moreover, they would like to extend
the Technology Start-up
Support Scheme for Universities (TSSSU) program to encourage entrepreneurship.
The last speaker was Prof. Hong
Yan (Dean, College of Science and Engineering, CityU) and he briefed last year research
achievement in the college. He quoted
one case that Huawei and CityU set up a Huawei Authorized Information and
Network Academy (HAINA) to offer training on cloud computing, networking and
telecommunications in 2015.
