The AUTM Training Courses in Hong Kong 2024 was held successfully on 20-21 August 2024 at City University of Hong Kong (CityU). We express our sincere appreciation to our esteemed instructors Dr. Cindy Chepanoske, Director of Technology Licensing, Carnegie Mellon University, USA and Mr. Daniel Dardani, member of AUTM Board of Directors, Director of Physical Sciences and Digital Innovations Licensing and Corporate Alliances, Duke University, USA, for generously sharing their knowledge and expertise with participants. 

Attendees mainly from tech transfer or research offices of many universities in Hong Kong and Macau, CityU HK Tech 300 startup teams, as well as colleagues of many SMEs and members of CityU Business & Industrial Club (CUBIC) joined the course. Participants had the opportunity to delve into valuable insights from industry professionals on effectively engaging researchers and innovators in areas such as Intellectual Property, Software License Agreements, and patent infringement, etc.

Once again, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to our key sponsor, the Intellectual Property Department, and our key partner Knowledge Transfer and Entrepreneurship Office of The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU) for their support in making this event a success.  We look forward to seeing you again in AUTM course next year!
