The HKU-ZJU Summer Programme, co-organised by The Faculty of Business and Economics (FBE), HKU and School of Management, Zhejiang University (ZJU), has been completed successfully in Hong Kong.

Aiming to gain a deeper understanding of Hong Kong’s cultural, economic, innovative and entrepreneurship development, 34 students from ZJU participated in the Summer Programme held from 14 to 20 July.

In this one-week programme, the group took lectures delivered by our FBE academics, including Mr. Joseph Chan, Senior Lecturer on topics related to Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Prof. Christine Chan, Associate Dean (Outreach and Global Engagement) on Global Management, and Dr. Yinuo Tang, Assistant Professor, on the Foundation of Strategic Management. In addition to joining the lectures, the students visited the local innovation hubs including Hong Kong Science and Technology Park and The Mills, in order to understand the supports to local startups from the government and different organisations.

Students discuss different ways to improve daily traffic.

Students suggest different strategies to help develop an international brand.

A representative from ORII, one of the incubatees of The Mills, explains the development and application of their voice-powered ring to the students.

HKU Business School Releases a Comprehensive Evaluation Report on the Image-Generation Capabilities of AI Models
HKU Business School released a Comprehensive Evaluation Report on the Image Generation Capabilities of Artificial Intelligence Models, providing a systematic assessment of 15 text-to-image models and 7 multimodal large language models (LLMs). The results showed that ByteDance’s Dreamina and Doubao, as well as Baidu’s ERNIE Bot ranked among the top performers in terms of image content quality for new-image generation and image revision. However, despite DeepSeek having attracted global attention, its newly released text-to-image model, Janus-Pro, did not perform as well in new-image generation. HKU Business School researchers also found that while some text-to-image models excelled in content quality, their performance in safety and responsibility was significantly lacking. In general, multimodal LLMs demonstrated better overall performance compared to text-to-image models.
