Data has become and will continue to be a major factor of production in the digital economy. In fact, it is fair to say that no profession or industry will survive without data. Therefore it is imperative that future professionals and workers will need to be equipped with the abilities to understand, manage and master data. I can foresee that data skills are highly sought-after broadly in all businesses, and in this particular case, the healthcare industry which by itself is and will remain as a major industry of the future due to aging society as well as the increasing health consciousness of people. This is a rather unique programme aiming to groom talents for the future of health industry. It is my genuine wish to see the programme a success and help to nurture more professionals of the highest caliber to cope with the need of Hong Kong.
