Global Outreach | The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology

Connecting Globally and Extending Outreach

HKUST is dedicated to cultivating strong relationships with Consuls-General from various countries. Our senior management frequently engages with diplomatic representatives, forging valuable connections with academic, government, and business leaders, as well as experts in science and technology, from around the world.

Institutional and government representatives from ASEAN nations, Egypt, France, Israel, Italy, Japan, Saudi Arabia, UAE and other countries actively participate in a range of HKUST-led initiatives. One such example is the ‘HKUST Global Dialogue Series’, which brings together Consuls-General to share insights and exchange ideas on international issues.

We also organize management-led delegations to visit our overseas partners to develop strategic partnerships and joint programs for the advancement in innovation and impact.
