The HKUST-SINO One Million Dollar Entrepreneurship Competition and Impactathon provide two distinct pathways for nurturing promising ideas into practical applications in businesses and communities. The competition, launched in 2011, offers aspiring entrepreneurs access to training, mentorship, investors, and industry contacts to develop technologies and business models.
Following the competition, HKUST InnoBay 1M PLUS supports these teams with real-world application scenarios, industry networking, and proof-of-concept opportunities. Meanwhile, the Impactathon takes a different approach by connecting innovators with communities, universities, and businesses at critical stages when feedback, practical experience, and industry connections can help their ideas gain momentum.
The HKUST InnoBay 1M PLUS programme aims to connect promising teams with partners across government, industry, academia, and the community, including businesses and investors that can help ideas progress towards application.
