HKUST Inaugurates Entrepreneurship Center to Promote Technology Commercialization and Business Development
The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) has introduced an Entrepreneurship Program to members of the University as an initiative to enhance science and technology development in the territory. Since the initiation of the program last year, nine companies have been set up. They are housed in the Entrepreneurship Center, located on the third floor of the Annex.
Mr Henry Tang, Chairman of Federation of Hong Kong Industries, Prof Chia-Wei Woo, HKUST President and Prof Otto Lin, HKUST's Vice-President for Research and Development will officiate at the opening ceremony for the Center to be held on 24 February, 2000.
"The Entrepreneurship Program is intended to help fulfill a University mission - to assist in the economic and social development of Hong Kong. HKUST is ready to lend support to faculty, staff, students and alumni in starting up their technology-based companies. These companies are eligible for the program if they focus on technology in products or services, have been established no more than three years, are registered in Hong Kong, and are owned at least 10% by HKUST personnel. HKUST will secure from these start-up companies 3% of their issued share capital at the time of entry into the program," said Prof Tony Eastham, Associate Vice-President for Research and Development. If the technology that the company pursues arises out of University research, a separate license is negotiated for the company to practice the intellectual property rights.
The University provides these start-up companies with a package of assistance. They are offered space at cost, complete with central office services. They also have access to professional consultation, such as accounting and legal advice. Moreover, they are introduced to potential investors, venture capital companies, and potential partners. These companies are developing various high-tech businesses, including consumer electronics, biosensors, new drugs, internet services, computer software, e-commerce systems, as well as voice recognition and machine translation systems.
"This program is conceived after a thorough review of the technology transfer policy and practice of major US universities, including MIT, Stanford, UC Berkeley and others, and the social and business environment of Hong Kong. We believe the University should take a proactive role now in promoting innovation and entrepreneurship for the future of Hong Kong," said Prof Otto Lin, Vice-President for Research and Development.
Details of the Opening Ceremony are as follows:
Title: Opening Ceremony of the HKUST Entrepreneurship Center

香港科技大學（科大）工學院研究團隊成功研發一款名為MOME的人工智能（AI）大模型，利用全國規模最大的多參數磁力共振成像（mpMRI）數據建構，能夠準確區分良性及惡性腫瘤，準確度媲美擁有五年以上經驗的放射科醫生。團隊正與深圳市人民醫院、廣州市第一人民醫院、雲南省腫瘤醫院等超過十間醫院及機構合作，展開大規模驗證，以進一步評估系統成效，為投入實際應用做好準備。
中國最大mpMRI數據集
乳癌是全球女性最常見且致命的癌症之一，早期篩查、準確的分子亞型分類，以及對治療反應的預測，對乳癌治療十分關鍵。儘管mpMRI數據能提供豐富的診斷資訊，但對於傳統AI系統而言，整合這些數據的多種成像模態（即磁力共振中不同的成像序列）仍存在不少挑戰，特別是在真實臨床環境中，某些模態或有缺失的情況。
香港科技大學（科大）與溢達集團攜手推出一項為期五年的創新研究計劃，旨在通過產學研深度融合，推動大灣區可持續發展進程。根據合作協議，科大學生將在教授指導下，每年兩度到訪溢達集團位於桂林的可持續發展園林「十如」（Integral）進行實地考察，就環境監測、生物多樣性保護等領域提出可持續發展建議。
該園區佔地逾50萬平方米，去年更獲聯合國全球契約組織選為「二十年二十佳」可持續發展案例之一。
由香港科技大學（科大）化學系孫建偉教授和林振陽教授領導的研究團隊，成功發現催化對映選擇性II 型[5+2]環加成反應，並就合成手性橋聯多環結構的挑戰提供了應對方案，尤其是那些帶有橋聯七元環亞單元的複雜分子結構。這種嶄新的方法使用了3-氧化吡喃葉立德分子，能控制合成分子的形狀，有望日後能快捷又有效地合成更多其他複雜化合物，包括一些重要的天然合成物和藥物分子。
手性橋聯多環結構，尤其是帶有橋聯七元環亞單元的結構，是一種複雜而又非常重要的分子結構，常見於自然界的天然合成物和一些有用的藥物中，但過往要合成這種複雜的分子結構非常困難。
在現有的方法中，多功能偶極分子（例如 3-氧化吡喃葉立德分子）內 [5+2] 環加成是少數能夠合成此類複雜分子又比較有效的方法。這次研究是催化對映選擇性 II 型環加成首次成功合成分子，可說是在合成複雜天然合成物方面上的重大突破。
