We discussed in three directions below.

i)                    Mentorship pool: The next round recruiting mentor would be held in Jan 2020. We would like to establish regular mechanism to recruit members of CES to share and lead startup in CityU.

ii)                  Commercialization related Seminars: We purposed to invite entrepreneurs in CES to share their story to both students and staff in CityU.  It suggested in Sem-A (after Sep 2019).

iii)                Arrange Visit to understanding CityU R&D: We purposed to invite CES entrepreneurs and alumni (e.g. who worked in important post in Hong Kong government) to visit CityU R&D projects and CityU Shenzhen Research Institute. 

After discussion, we would be feedback to CES exco meeting on next Monday.  Hopefully, CES could assist KTO to incubate more entrepreneurs and transfer our R&D into market in near future.
