KE in the Review 2017

The Review 2017 looks back at another fruitful year for knowledge exchange. The focus is on supporting technological innovation, as well as applying research to inform public policy, improve health and education, and other outcomes that benefit society. “An innovation mindset is also being cultivated on campus, with technology being a major driver,” says Professor Peter Mathieson, President and Vice-Chancellor. “New agreements with external partners, such as Cyberport and Hong Kong Science and Technology Park, are providing funding and opportunities for translating our innovations into impact.”
