The collaboration seeks to promote industrial applications by translating research findings into market-oriented products and services.

Researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has recently developed a novel integration scheme for efficient coupling between III-V compound semiconductor devices and silicon components on silicon photonics (Si-photonics) platform by selective direct epitaxy1, unlocking the potential of integrating energy-efficient photonics with cost-effective electronics, as well as enabling the next generation telecommunications with low cost, high speed and large capacity. 

Researchers at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) have designed an innovative iron-based cathode material to achieve record performance for protonic ceramic fuel cells, marking a significant step forward in the development and commercialization of this promising renewable energy technology.

Once your creative work is adopted, it will be the inaugural anthem of the University. 

The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) received a generous donation of HK$150 million from Dr. Martin LEE Ka-shing, Chairman of Henderson Land Group, in support of HKUST’s ongoing efforts in innovation and entrepreneurship.  In appreciation of Dr. Lee’s benevolent support, HKUST named the new research building “Martin Ka Shing Lee Innovation Building”.  The University celebrated the groundbreaking of its new research building today. As a new landmark of the University, Martin Ka Shing Lee Innovation Building will provide much-needed additional facilities for multiple disciplines in science and engineering, seeking to bring the University’s research, industrial collaboration and translational activities to the next level.

HKUST held its Industry Engagement Day today, showcasing 31 inventions spanning four strategic research areas. 

The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) held a signing ceremony with the Guangdong Bright Dream Robotics (BDR) recently to translate five technologies developed by HKUST faculty members into application.  The research achievements – spanning from more efficient building materials to a high-caliber indoor human localization system, are the first batch of scientific outputs from the HKUST-BDR Joint Research Institute (HBJRI) – a joint vehicle of HKUST and BDR to promote innovation and talent grooming.  

Aging, and the struggle against it, has long been a popular theme in classic and modern literature in human history. From the ill-fated Qin Shi Huang’s expedition to the sea searching for eternal life to Count Dracula’s popularity in the West, aging is a mystery that has captured the world's imagination for thousands of years and yet remains unsolved.
