Welcoming the Year of the Horse with Innovation and Impact

As we celebrate the Chinese New Year and the arrival of the Year of the Horse, the HKUMed Technology Transfer Unit extends warm greetings of health, joy and “馬到功成” – success that arrives swiftly and surely – to our entire community and partners in Hong Kong, the Greater Bay Area and beyond.

The Horse symbolises energy, progress and perseverance – qualities that resonate strongly with HKUMed’s mission to advance health through research, innovation and meaningful real‑world impact.

Looking Ahead in 2026

In the Year of the Horse, we look forward to galloping ahead together with our researchers, students and collaborators:

• For researchers and innovators
  We are gearing up for a dynamic year of innovation and entrepreneurship. Stay tuned for our upcoming events, especially our flagship HKUMedXelerate 2026 planned for around Q4, where we will showcase cutting‑edge biomedical innovations and foster collaborations across academia, industry and healthcare.
• For students
  We invite you to engage with our Student Ambassador Scheme 2026–27 and other experiential learning opportunities in innovation and technology transfer. These initiatives are designed to help you understand the journey from research to real‑world solutions, and to nurture the next generation of health innovators.
• For collaborators
  We are deeply grateful for your trust, expertise and support are essential to turning scientific breakthroughs into real‑world health solutions that benefit patients and society.
