The Innovation & Technology Commission is inviting proposals for admission to the third InnoHK research cluster, SEAM@InnoHK, focusing on sustainable development, energy, advanced manufacturing and materials.

The commission said following the setting up of the first two research clusters - Health@InnoHK, focusing on healthcare technology, and AIR@InnoHK, focusing on artificial intelligence and robotics technologies - the Government is now taking forward the establishment of the third InnoHK research cluster, SEAM@InnoHK, enabling Hong Kong to move full steam ahead towards becoming a global research collaboration hub.

It said that SEAM@InnoHK will not only facilitate top-notch universities, research institutes and the industries to collaborate in research and development (R&D) but also promote the translation of R&D outcomes into impactful, real-world applications and the development of relevant industries in Hong Kong.

The selected research centres or laboratories should conduct collaborative research that is innovative, world-class, of global relevance, and addressing real-world problems in collaboration with world-renowned non-local universities and research institutions.

The final R&D deliverables are expected to achieve significant societal impact by bringing demonstrable contributions, beneficial effects, valuable changes or advantages both locally and globally.

The amount of subsidies to be recommended for each research centre or laboratory will depend on the merits of individual application proposals, which can be used to support operational costs, including remuneration for scholars and research teams during the subsidy period, purchase of equipment, R&D costs and setup costs, including fitting-out.

The application deadline is 5pm on August 29.

For enquiries, call 3855 7671 or send an email to innohk@itc.gov.hk.
