From the Industrial Revolution to the Information Age, technological advancement has continuously reshaped industry structures, business models, and forms of social organization. Today, with the rapid evolution of artificial intelligence, AIoT-enabled hardware, and other emerging innovations, the architecture and operational logic of business ecosystems are undergoing a new wave of profound transformation and dynamic evolution.

Against this backdrop, HKUST Business School is pleased to announce the establishment of the Center for Technology and Business Ecosystem (CTBE). CTBE is dedicated to systematically exploring the relationship between disruptive technologies and the construction of future business ecosystems, as well as how technology and ecosystems can jointly drive industrial transformation and continuous innovation.

CTBE’s Launch Event will be held on the morning of Friday, May 30, 2025, in Central, Hong Kong. The event will feature the official launch announcement, keynote speeches, and a roundtable discussion. We would be honored by your presence and participation in this important occasion.
