Technology Translation
Anchoring Technology Applications
The Technology Translation Section provides research infrastructure and ecosystem to anchor HKBU’s translational research, allowing for the scientific developments necessary to boost the success rate of HKBU innovations and entrepreneurship. It provides resources to support technology development and demonstration, while at the same time serving as a training hub to nurture the future generation of STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics) graduates and equip them with the necessary skill-set and know-how of actual translation work. Our flagship translational infrastructures include:
Wu Jieh Yee Institute of Translational Chinese Medicine Research (ITCMR)
Located at the Hong Kong Science Park, the primary mission of ITCMR is to become a recognised world-class centre for innovative research in Chinese medicine. Equipped with state-of-the-art research infrastructure, ITCMR supports cutting-edge and cross-disciplinary collaborations with high-quality translational research and deliverables, generating significant regional and global impact in the healthcare industry.
Art Tech Incubation Hub
Located at the Jockey Club Creative Arts Centre (JCCAC), the incubation hub aims to foster the incubation of the most advanced Art Tech projects, enabling technology development and entrepreneurial activities by providing a creative environment to facilitate innovation journeys. The hub will feature facilities and laboratory spaces for art tech translation, co-working space, and exhibition space of various forms.
