PolyU Shenzhen Base hosted the ‘Greater Bay Area Sustainability Innovation Challenge’ in August 2022 to encourage sustainable development in the region. The competition is an additional tournament for the Shenzhen-Hong Kong-Macao University Qualifier Area of the 2022 China (Shenzhen) Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition.

The theme of the event was ‘Focusing on innovation that promotes sustainable development’, with the aim of advocating the practice of sustainable development concepts in the Greater Bay Area (GBA). More than 40 teams from more than 10 higher education institutions submitted projects to the competition. Sixteen winners, including five teams from PolyU, shared a cash prize of RMB 360,000. They will also receive support to help them develop their ideas into reality.

Through its Shenzhen Base, PolyU has been fostering the development of innovation and technology, as well as talent, in the GBA.
