President Leonard K Cheng attended the Guangdong-Hong Kong University Presidents’ Forum at Sun Yat-sen University in Guangzhou on 3 November together with Secretary for Education Mr Eddie Ng Hak-kim and presidents or vice-presidents of other UGC-funded institutions to explore further collaboration and exchange opportunities between higher education institutions of the two places in the areas of teaching, research and talent nurturing.
The Forum comprised three themes namely “Establishing Guangdong-Hong Kong Higher Education Institution Alliance for High Quality Universities”, “Cooperation and Exchanges for Talent Nurturing” and “Industrial, Academic and Research Collaborative Innovation and Industry Partnership”. Through this exchange opportunity, President Cheng and representatives of other Hong Kong institutions had direct dialogue with presidents or vice presidents of the 14 participating Guangdong universities, which promoted mutual understanding and opened up room for broader co-operation.
