HKLSS Summer Internship 2024 Opening Ceremony cum Wuxi-Shanghai Study Tour Kick-off Ceremony was held successfully on 20 June 2024.The event began with welcoming remarks by Prof Ken Wong, Executive Director of HKLSS and the opening remarks by the Honourable Mr Henry Tang, GBM, GBS, JP, Founding President of Federation of HK Jiangsu Community Organisations. The ceremony is followed by an engaging panel discussion on “Preparing a career in VUCA world” by Ms Lisa Cai, Director of Nan Fung Life Sciences, Prof Daniel Lee, Associate Vice-President (Innovation and Enterprise) of CUHK, and Prof Anderson Shum, President of The Hong Kong Young Academy of Sciences.

We also kicked off the Wuxi-Shanghai Study Tour, co-organized with the Hong Kong Wuxi Trade Association and supported by the Youth Development Commission. Participants will travel to Wuxi and Shanghai during 25-29 June 2024 to visit the renowned life sciences companies and get to know the industry development in mainland China.

This year, we welcomed over 40 interns for the 6th cohort of the Summer Internship Program and over 50 participants joining the first Wuxi-Shanghai Study Tour organized by HKLSS and Hong Kong Wuxi Trade Association. We hope the programs will let the young talent understand more about life sciences and biotechnology development in Hong Kong and mainland China.

Thank you all partners for supporting our programs! Wish all interns and study tour participants will have a fruitful journey this summer!
