Here's some highlights of my career:
Experience
I have worked with companies ranging in size from unnamed startups to MNC like IBM, Microsoft and Bayer.
I worked as a Lecturer at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University for over a decade. I also helped to run its inclubator, designed its Innovation Policy, led its Blockchain Applications Research Lab and wrote its Blockchain courses.
Most recently, I led the Design Marketing Program at the Dubai Institute of Design and Innovation (UAE). I still teach at a Business School (Gratia Christian College) in Hong Kong.
Education
I hold a dual Undergraduate Degree in History & Computer Science, an advanced Diploma in Strategic Management, an MBA from the Management School of the University of Liverpool. I also have an (honorary) Ph.D.
I am a IBM Certified Blockchain Developer and graduate of the Oxford University Blockchain Strategy Programme.
I am delighted to be working with IDEA FACTORY Community Members, Ambassadors and Guest Judges to make the IDEA FACTORY even better in 2023!
Expect to see a bunch of new activities in 2023 as we bring some new ideas to the table and also continue the strong traditions that were established when the IDEA FACTORY was created.
