(Telecompaper) MIT has launched an "Innovation Node" in Hong Kong, a collaborative space that aims to connect the MIT community to resources, including advanced manufacturing capabilities, and other opportunities in Hong Kong and the neighbouring Pearl River Delta (PRD). The MIT Hong Kong Innovation Node will launch next summer, bringing in MIT students, faculty, and researchers to work on various entrepreneurial and research projects alongside Hong Kong students and faculty, MIT alumni, entrepreneurs, and businesses. By combining resources and talent, the Innovation Node aims to help students learn how to move ideas more rapidly from lab to market. Other new activities enabled through the Innovation Node will include increased opportunities for MIT students to conduct research in collaboration with Hong Kong universities, events focused on innovation and entrepreneurship, internships at companies in the region; and the formation of a makerspace and startup programme for student entrepreneurs.
