Solving Business Challenges with CUHK Business School Researchers

The Summit of Unsolved Problems -- or SOUP Summit -- a cross-border initiative from the CUHK Business School and Shenzhen Finance Institute of CUHK-Shenzhen, will take place on 7 May. Its aim is to pool ideas from small and large businesses to produce practical and innovative technology backed solutions for many of the shared challenges they face. Solving these bottlenecks will benefit not just the businesses involved, but also academics and society at large.

At a webinar on 22 March, Ling Cen, Associate Professor at CUHK Business School and Associate Director of the Hong Kong-Shenzhen Finance Research Centre, shared more details about the SOUP Summit. He explained that it is the first of its kind in Asia, and would serve as a platform to connect industry practitioners with researchers to help businesses to find the right tools and strategies to address their problems and generate positive social impact.
