          Hong Kong

          Hong Kong, Asia’s financial hub, will be the first stop of the Fellowship programmes. The Fellows will attend expert briefings, visit startup facilities and education institutes in Hong Kong. The Fellows can also meet with potential investors, partners and clients met during the earlier virtual platforms.

          Shenzhen

          The Fellows will be whisked off to Shenzhen, the R&D and innovation hub of the Greater Bay Area, to experience the rapid economic and technological developments in China. They will visit large tech companies with interests in education technology, startup facilities, schools and meet government officials.

          Dongguan (Optional)

          For Fellows interested in high-end manufacturing facilities, they will be taken to Dongguan to visit the Songshan Lake High Tech Industrial Park and the electronic technology and educational toys factories there. Fellows opting to skip the Dongguan leg can return to Hong Kong.
