This ground-breaking initiative promotes the creation of spinouts based on your research in 听AI/Machine Learning, DevX, green software engineering, cybersecurity, data science, and other digital tech, offering a founding equity stake to participants when viable spin-out opportunities arise.听

You will be motivated to create economic value by addressing research challenges with the potential for commercial returns.听
How does the programme work?听
If you have a compelling idea with commercial potential, you can pitch your concept to a panel of 香港六合彩中特网 academics and investors.听
