Talk 1: 7:15pm – 7:35pm – “Low-Altitude Economy Connecting the Global Transmission of Chinese Culture “

by Prof Eddie Hui, Founder & CEO of IT emaos

[Abstract]

Low-altitude technologies like drones, aerial logistics, and tourism are redefining the global sharing of Chinese culture, offering unparalleled opportunities to preserve heritage, showcase iconic landmarks, and deliver cultural products efficiently. As a global logistics hub connecting China and the world, Hong Kong is uniquely positioned to lead this transformation, aligning with national strategies and strengthening its role as a global innovation benchmark while advancing cultural exchange at an unprecedented scale.

Founder & CEO of IT emaos, has 43 years of ICT and business development experience. He served as Business Envoy for Zhuhai City Government, VP of the International Smart City Research Institute, and is an Executive Coach and startup mentor at Tech 300, City University of Hong Kong.

Talk 2: 7:35pm – 7:55pm – “The Quantum Leap: Solving Puzzles Too Big for the Universe”
by Mr Leo Lui

[Abstract]

What if a simple puzzle about friendships could shape the future of technology? This talk explores Ramsey’s Theorem, a math puzzle asking how large a group must be to ensure smaller groups where everyone knows or doesn’t know each other — a problem impossible for supercomputers to solve. Enter quantum computing, leveraging quantum physics to tackle such challenges, revolutionizing fields from medicine to communication. No math or tech background needed — discover quantum computing’s transformative potential.

[Bio of Mr Lui]

An electronic engineering expert with over 20 years of experience, specializes in software development, data science, and IT consultancy. He has led IoT deployments, advanced intrusion systems, and online platforms. As an educator, he trains professionals in AI, cybersecurity, and data engineering while coaching STEM Olympiad teams.

Talk 3: 7:55pm – 8:15pm – “Going to the Moon “

by Dr. Stephen W. Cheung, Adjunct Professor of Physics at the University of Hong Kong

[Abstract]

Sometime this decade, humans will land on the Moon…. again. Human missions include the Artemis program of the US and Chang’e program of China. Their objectives are similar. The Moon is very near  by astronomy standard. But it is a different environment altogether. How will these programs go there? What will they do this time that is different than before? What does the Moon have to offer us? What are the challenges once humans arrive? Is the Moon the end or just the beginning of the Space Age?

[Bio of Dr Cheung]

A former NASA-funded research scientist at Stanford, is an expert in radiation therapy and microwave systems, holding US patents and authoring books on microwave technology. As Adjunct Professor of Physics at the University of Hong Kong, he promotes space science in Hong Kong.
