Startups

The Technology Transfer Office strives to promote innovation and entrepreneurship to the HKU community.  We have engaged in various entrepreneurship activities, such as InnoCarnival, TSSSU@HKU, Technology Transfer Primer Webinar, etc.

With the launch of the Technology Start-up Support Scheme for Universities at HKU (TSSSU@HKU) in 2014/15, there is a growing trend of new technology start-up companies formed by HKU researchers to commercialize their research outcomes.   These start-ups have the potential to create impact on society when their new products based on HKU technologies are successfully launched to the market in the coming years.
