The HKSF has become a grand and dynamic event, featuring an array of innovative hardware prototypes, family-friendly scientific interactive zones, and a showcase of cutting-edge inventions by local I&T institutions. The event is an exemplary community-driven initiative that promotes the popularisation of science and technology in the city.

This energetic platform was abuzz with visitors of all ages and nationalities, interacting with the participating teams. Many were captivated by the creative solutions demonstrated, marvelling at the young inventors’ ingenuity, insightful observations, and impressive problem-solving abilities. Meanwhile, eager student participants engaged with visitors, inviting them to their prototype demonstrations and distributing souvenirs. The excitement among the participating teams was palpable, because the three Gold Award-winning teams would go on to join an international innovation event – the International Exhibition of Inventions Geneva.

Visitors were also keen to support their favourite inventions, casting votes for the Most Popular Award. A large crowd was excited to pose next to the cutting-edge technological innovations displayed by local institutes.

HKSF has emerged as a recognised launchpad for young I&T talent in Hong Kong, aligning with the Government’s long-term goal of transforming the city into a sustainable international I&T hub.
