Beyond classroom teaching, we offered students a taste of “FinTech” by hosting an out-of-the-classroom activity on 31 January. Led by Dr Henry Chan and Dr Dorothy Chau, a group of COMP students made a visit to Cyberport Smart-Space FinTech. Mr Charles Lam, Manager, Partners Team of Cyberport welcomed the group by giving a guided tour to the Smart-Space facilities. That afternoon, representatives from FinTech start-ups were invited to share their experiences with the students. Mr William Lau, Manager of Business Development, Entrepreneurs Team of Cyberport also met the group and introduced their support to entrepreneurship through the Cyberport Incubation Programme. We sincerely thank Cyberport for organising the visit for COMP.
