Alumni Night in Shenzhen

Shenzhen, a city separated from Hong Kong only by a river, is no doubt a metaphor for the new China.  Dubbed as the "Window to the World", the city is developing into a hub for modern services and high tech industries.  Do you know that a substantial number of alumni are propelling the growth of the city in a myriad of sectors such as banking, accounting, engineering, marketing, manufacturing and high tech R&D.

The Alumni Night in Shenzhen will bring together alumni of diverse backgrounds, from entrepreneurs, multinational companies' executives to investors and more.  Jointly organized by HKUST Alumni Association and HKUST Alumni Team, we are glad to have invited Vice-President of HKUST, Dr Eden Woon to be the honorable guest of this landmark event.

What's more? In addition to mixing and mingling at the poolside, we have also invited Prof Kang Feiyu and Mr Frank Wang to share with us the working life in Shenzhen.  Prof Kang Feiyu, PhD(MECH) alumnus, is currently Executive Deputy Dean of Tsinghua Graduate School in Shenzhen who administers executive education programs for hundreds of industrial partners in the area.  Mr Frank Wang, MPhil(ELEC) alumnus, has founded DJI Innovations and iFlight Technology upon graduation. He successfully turned his invention - unmanned helicopter into a promising business.
