Saint Francis University (SFU) and Lung Cheong Digital Technology (Hong Kong) Limited (Lung Cheong) signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to jointly promote artificial intelligence and innovation & technology (I&T) education, creative design and related activities. On the same day, the two parties held the launch ceremony of the "Smart Play · Smart Learning" Intelligent Autonomous Vehicle Competition, which aims to stimulate students' interest in AI through fun competitions.

The MoU was jointly signed by Professor Stephen Cheung Yan-leung, President of SFU, and Mr Leung Chung Ming, Managing Director of Lung Cheong Group. It marked the combination of academic and industry strengths to explore collaboration opportunities in AI and I&T education.

Professor Cheung remarked: "As a pioneer in applied sciences education, SFU places equal emphasis on knowledge and practice in its programme offerings and has been committed to promoting industry-university collaboration. Through this collaboration with Lung Cheong, we aim to combine the strengths of both parties in AI education, robotics technology and creative design to further promote the application of AI in education and arts design, foster the integration of technology and creativity, and deepen industry-academia cooperation."

Mr Leung said: "This collaboration fully reflects the shared commitment of both parties to exploring opportunities in applied education and creative technology, and to translating technology into practical, feasible application solutions. By combining Lung Cheong's technology research and development capabilities with SFU's academic strengths, we hope to drive innovative development across fields including technology application and creative design."

Under the MoU framework, both parties will explore collaboration in joint research projects, conferences and exhibitions, and short-term academic programmes, with the aim of promoting the development of AI and I&T education talent in Hong Kong. The launch ceremony was followed by a briefing by Mr Tsang Hing Lung, Chairman of the China Region of the Asian Robotics League, who introduced the competition's rules. The competition enables students to put AI and mechanical technology into practice through intelligent autonomous vehicle contests, cultivating problem-solving skills and innovative thinking.
