From Hong Kong to Europe: HKU Students Explore Innovation in London and Barcelona!
Recently, the HKU-TLV Innovation Hub successfully led two international field trips - one bringing MBA students to London and the other taking undergraduates to Barcelona! Both journeys provided students with much more than classroom learning. They connected with innovative entrepreneurs during local company visits, participated in hands-on workshops, and attended lectures with top professors and industry experts. Each group explored the distinctive business environments of their host cities.
