About the event

This is not a typical science lecture, but a strategic conversation on how fundamental research can serve as the bedrock for Hong Kong's long-term competitiveness and societal strength.
The forum presents a compelling case, based on months of research, that Hong Kong's future strength lies in becoming Asia's preeminent intellectual hub by doubling down on basic, curiosity-driven science, reflecting a society's intellectual maturity and long-term vision.
