The Next Great Inventor
Have you ever thought that you might want to become the next great inventor? If you have a passion for technology, believe you have even rudimentary skills, are curious, determined and can think out of the box, then why not give it a go?
Organised by the Innovation and Technology Commission and partnering with The HKFYG and the Hong Kong Science Park, the "InnoCarnival 2021" is the place to ignite your curiosity and come up with innovative solutions to local and global issues. With more than 30 partners from universities to tech businesses, you will be guided to appreciate and marvel at what local innovation can and has done.
Under the theme "Innovate for a Bright Future", the event will feature different technology activities online and offline. From 23 to 30 October, exhibitions at the Hong Kong Science Park will showcase local inventions and technological achievements, including robotics and green solutions. There will be interactive game booths at the Park for the public to experience the power of technology in exciting and fun ways. There will also be more than 100 InnoTech online workshops and nearly 30 online seminars by distinguished scholars and industry professionals.
Why not join in? You never know when inspiration will hit you to become the next great inventor!
