Lingnan Entrepreneurship Initiative joins international iAccelerate Innovation Network

The Lingnan Entrepreneurship Initiative (LEI), a collaborative Innovation and Entrepreneurship (I&E) platform at LU, has become an international member of the iAccelerate Innovation Network so as to connect student entrepreneurs and budding startups with international partners for collaboration and knowledge sharing.

Created by iAccelerate, a community-focused business accelerator and incubator programme at the University of Wollongong (UOW), Australia, the Network is a handpicked group of partners looking to enhance international cooperation, including sharing resources such as education materials, industry expertise, speakers, mentors and investors to drive national and international modernisation.

 

“The innovation community at LU is particularly active in developing humanitarian technology and promoting inclusive entrepreneurship. We believe iAccelerate’s vibrant global network coupled with LU’s liberal arts entrepreneurship programmes will bring out the best in the exciting ecosystems at both universities,” said Prof Albert Ko, Director of LEI.

 

LEI will also nominate a startup to take part in the upcoming seven-week iAccelerate Activate Virtual Program.
