PolyU has coined a new term “Poly-preneurs” to acknowledge the entrepreneurial spirit of its venturous graduates who start their own business and their contribution to the advancement of Hong Kong’s economy.

In celebrating its 75th Anniversary, more than 400 Poly-preneurs’ company logos were collected to create a gigantic PolyU logo.

These alumni entrepreneurs from different eras were invited to join the “Poly-preneur Night” at Hotel ICON on 31 May 2012. The dinner was officially opened by Dr Ng Tat-lun, Deputy Chairman of PolyU Council; Ir Prof. Johnny Fan, President of The Federation of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University Alumni Associations; Prof. Timothy W. Tong, PolyU President; and Prof. Angelina Yuen, Vice President (Institutional Advancement and Partnership).

The event also saw the debut of a book titled "Indistinguishable from magic" compiling more than 75 outstanding PolyU projects or applications to exemplify the University’s efforts and achievement in knowledge transfer. Details>
