香港中文大學知識轉移事務處日前率領九個優秀科研轉化項目,赴北京參加「HICOOL 2026 全球創業者峰會」。作為全球創新創業社群的年度盛事,本屆峰會匯聚逾600家海內外優秀展商及頂尖科創人才。港中大代表團於峰會上集中展示前沿創新實力,展現港中大雄厚的科研底蘊與加速產學研轉化的強勁動能。⋅
當前,港中大正全面推動落實最新發佈的五年策略計劃《中大2026-2030:騰躍新程,勵行志遠》,將「促進具影響力的研究與知識轉移」及「深化與內地戰略合作」列為核心發展支柱。知識轉移事務處積極發揮橋樑紐帶作用,透過組織大學科研團隊參與 HICOOL 等高規格國際創科交流平台,加速基礎研究邁向產業化落地,緊抓京港深化創科合作的歷史機遇,為國家及區域經濟注入高品質發展動能。
香港中文大學知識轉移事務處王家達處長表示:「港中大一直致力將世界一流的基礎研究轉化為造福社會的實質應用。本次亮相 HICOOL 2026 的九個項目,精準切合全球前沿科技趨勢與重大產業痛點。我們期望透過是次峰會,助力港中大初創團隊深入對接內地產業鏈、資本市場及臨床轉化場景,進一步鞏固京港協同創新生態,落實大學五年策略計劃的宏偉藍圖。」
本次參展的九個科研轉化項目亮點紛呈,深度聚焦於醫療科技、人工智能及機械人技術,以及可持續發展、能源、先進製造及材料三大核心領域。參展成果包括針對血癌的新一代 CAR-T 細胞療法平台、OncoMind 腫瘤精準治療 AI 系統、妊娠期併發症三基因血液檢測法;柔性可穿戴腦機接口與仿生肌肉康復系統、AI4Bio 細胞影像智能體;以及全球首創 {110} 織構超薄鋰箔負極、超高速三維雙光子光刻系統、安全低成本硫基液流電池與環保無機微球綠色材料等。各項目均具備顯著的自主技術創新性、高性價比國產化優勢及明確的產業化路徑,展現港中大從基礎科研邁向市場應用的豐碩成果。
在峰會專題路演環節中,港中大代表團隊登台進行了全方位展示與深度推介。憑藉突破性的自主研發實力與明確的市場應用潛力,各項目迅速吸引了現場多位知名投資人、行業領軍企業家及科創同儕的深厚興趣與高度關注。路演現場互動熱烈,眾多產業代表及投資機構於會後紛紛與團隊展開一對一深度洽商,就技術成果轉化、應用場景共建等方面合作展開實質性對接。
此外,為進一步推動參展項目與區域產業鏈深度融合,代表團在主辦方的精心安排下走進懷柔區開展實地考察。活動圍繞「搭建國際創業項目與北京各區精準對接平台、推動項目落地意向達成」的核心目標,帶領團隊深入了解當地區域產業政策、孵化配套設施及落地空間,助力區域招商引才,同時展現北京作為國際創業高地的綜合實力。考察期間,代表團一行實地走訪了 HICOOL 2025 一等獎企業「多場低溫科技(北京)有限公司」,現場了解其關鍵技術攻關與研發轉化進展;隨後赴懷柔科學城產業轉化示範區,聽取園區規劃與創新生態建設介紹,並參訪先進光電技術企業「北京雲漢星馳激光技術有限公司」。透過實地調研與面對面交流,港中大團隊切實感受到了懷柔科學城的科研承載力與政策扶持力度,為未來跨區域項目落地與產業協同奠定了堅實基礎。
展會期間,香港中文大學代表團吸引了眾多海內外投資機構、行業龍頭企業及產業園區代表駐足交流與洽商。未來,知識轉移事務處將繼續以「五年策略計劃」為指引,健全科研孵化體系,加強與內地主要創科樞紐的常態化對接,助力更多高價值科技成果走出實驗室、走向產業市場,為推動國家科技自立自強及香港建設國際創新科技中心作出深遠貢獻。

The Cyberport University Partnership Programme (CUPP), supported by the Cyberport Creative Micro Fund (CCMF), offers a transformative experience aimed at unlocking the full potential of young talents and providing valuable insights into the global market. The programme successfully completed its core overseas leg at the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE) from 5 August to 12 August 2026.
This year, 20 nominated teams from 12 local universities advanced to an intensive entrepreneurship boot camp hosted by LSE. The immersive training program focused on pioneering technology domains, including Artificial Intelligence (AI), Blockchain, Cybersecurity, and Data Science. Led by top-tier scholars and global industry experts, the cohorts participated in advanced masterclasses covering tech risk management, MVP development, and the European VC fundraising landscape.
Beyond the workshops, the 20 teams expanded their global horizons through ecosystem visits to prominent UK innovation hubs, including Plexal and Somerset House Studio – Makerversity. These site visits allowed CUPPers to interface directly with cutting-edge international tech ventures and experience London’s dynamic entrepreneurial spirit firsthand.
We were honoured to have two CUHK startup teams, Teachn.io and Her Guard AI join the Boot Camp this year. Participants are now set to compete for 10 seed funding awards of HK$100,000 each from the CCMF to materialize their projects.
