Last October, PolyU and the Hefei Luyang People’s Government reached an MoU to jointly establish the PolyU-Hefei Technology and Innovation Research Institute (the Research Institute), with the aim of fostering in-depth and effective collaboration in industry, academia and research and cultivating talents.
Both parties are now working towards the establishment of the Research Institute, which contributes to enhancing and facilitating research development, academic exchange, nurturing of talent, and knowledge transfer in various fields, including biomedical and sensing precision technology, and aerospace information. By leveraging the research and academic excellence of PolyU, these collaborations support the development of a top-notch innovation platform in Hefei.
