Miss Wong Man Chi (INFE, final year) who teamed up with student from Department of Management Sciences and graduate of Department of Social and Behavioural Sciences, has been selected to join The Cyberport University Partnership Programme (CUPP) 2018 and awarded HK$100K seed fund to develop their FinTech start-up project “Global Payment Aggregator for Merchant”. The winning team is supervised by Dr Ray Cheung, Associate Professor of EE.
CUPP is a FinTech-focused entrepreneurship programme for local university students to unleash their potential, gain insights into the global market, and receive a unique chance to participate in an Entrepreneurship Boot Camp in the US and receive mentorship from industry elites. More about this meaningful programme can be found here.
Cyberport has run such a programme since 2015 and it’s the fourth consecutive year that our student has been selected to join the programme and won the HK$100K seed fund. It’s so exciting that there are totally ten students representing five teams being awarded the CUPP seed fund to develop their FinTech start-up projects since 2015.
