HKU Innovation Week
Discover Innovation at I-School
HKU Innovation Week returns on 14 October 2026, bringing together researchers, entrepreneurs, investors, industry leaders and innovators to explore how new ideas and technologies can create real-world impact.
This year’s theme, “The Innovation Reef: Where Ideas Breed and Thrive,” celebrates the vibrant ecosystem of innovation at HKU — where ideas come together, grow and connect with the wider community.
For I-School, Innovation Week is also an opportunity to showcase how we bring innovation, technology and entrepreneurship together — from education and research to real-world ventures.
Come and discover what happens when technology, creativity and entrepreneurial thinking come together at HKU I-School.
We will be featuring two booths, each offering a different glimpse into the I-School innovation ecosystem.
