By establishing the Professorship, I hope to promote advanced art manufacturing and technology development, and research on creative design with Chinese elements; and by integrating “Chinese culture” and “creative design”, blending tradition with innovation in future research and educational endeavours, further strengthen Hong Kong's position as a cultural and artistic exchange centre between the East and the West.
