FutureGen Girls Foundation took part in CUHK Innovation Day 2025

On 26th September, 5 student members of FutureGen Girls Foundation took part in CUHK Innovation Day 2025.

Participating in this event, our students had a chance to communicate with the student CEOs through a Q&A session about entrepreneurship. They learnt about the obstacles faced by student CEOs and the reasons why they decided to create their program utilizing AI. For instance, there were programs for educational purposes, and one for medical use. Through the program, students gain a better understanding of the dedication the young CEOs and their teams have towards their projects, for example, one of the members of the application worked 30 hours nonstop without any sleep just to refine the software. The CEOs taught our students a lesson of perseverance and passion.

 

After the Q&A session, they moved on to visit the startup booths of projects crafted from scratch by other students or professors. The highlight was a robot that was capable of playing orchestral instruments, such as the violin. There were many other designs that applied technology which helps and makes things more convenient in our lives, or turns useless substances into useful products. This is an inspiring and once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for these students.
