We extend our sincere gratitude to all the #healthcare, #innovators, #researchers, and #techleaders who participated in our special event on May 15. Your presence created an engaging environment filled with inspiring discussions. A special thanks to our co-host HKSTP – Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation, our collaboration partner Equinix, and our strategic partner Hong Kong Startup Council, for their invaluable support in facilitating this dynamic exploration of AI’s #transformative role in #healthcare R&D.

The first panel, expertly moderated by Prof. Jimmy Tao from Hong Kong Startup Council 香港初創企業協會, addressed the #challenges and #opportunities within #biomedical R&D. Alongside Prof. Zhao Ni from #CUHK, Sam Chu, PhD. of #AiHPC, and Eric M. Hui from #HKITIC and Equinix, they highlighted the #painpoints facing the industry while emphasizing Hong Kong’s unique strengths—our world-class medical system, outstanding doctors, and dedicated researchers— positioning us as a hub for cutting-edge advancements.

The second panel, skillfully led by Alex Hung #FF of #DALA, explored real-world AI solutions featuring William CHAN from #CUHK #MedicalCentre, Aaron Lee of #Exco #member of #DALA, and David Chan from #Equinix. A particularly engaging discussion focused on #longevity, with humans expected to live beyond 100 years. Given that Hong Kong has one of the highest life expectancies globally, the urgency and excitement for AI-driven #healthcare #innovation have never been greater.

Sam Chu, PhD. Chu of #AiHPC & #Equinix presented a demo highlighting how innovation is overcoming challenges in various clinical and R&D environments.

We were excited to see such enthusiastic participation and meaningful exchanges throughout the event. We look forward to maintaining this momentum as we collectively shape the future of #healthcare.

Stay tuned for more updates, exciting events, and announcements regarding the #DALAAwards2025!
