HKU has an extensive range of expertise that can assist to develop solutions for business, industry and public bodies. Our database, the HKU Scholars’ Hub, provides easy access to information about our scholars and their achievements and reputation.

 

A contract research/consulting project is commissioned by a company usually with specific goals in mind but that the project does not involve the generation of any new intellectual property.

 

Contract research and consulting projects can be arranged through Versitech at the departmental, faculty and University level. These arrangements typically will outline the project objectives, deliverables and criteria for acceptance of these deliverables. The principle investigator is obliged to deliver these deliverables within an agreed schedule.

 

Companies can contact Versitech (email: info@versitech.hku.hk; telephone: (852) 3917 3111) for information and see if a match exists between our staff and your projects.  Companies can also visit KEO (for consultancy project) and Research Services  (for contract research) for further information.
