Launched by the Innovation and Technology Commission (ITC) of the HKSAR Government in October 2023, Research, Academic and Industry Sectors One-plus Scheme (RAISe+ Scheme) aims to unleash potential of local universities in transformation and commercialisation of R&D outcomes, and facilitate relevant collaboration among the Government, industries, universities, and research sectors.
A total of 13 innovative technology projects from CUHK were awarded funding in the first and second batches of the RAISe+ Scheme.
