Meet Sophia.
The Innovation Alliance Program has been a thought-provoking program bringing together government and business leaders, university academics and technology experts to drive the creation of new technology and Innovation Use Cases for Hong Kong, especially on the areas of IoT, AI and Private 5G mobile innovations.
In the annual flagship event “Reimagined Journey to the Heart of Innovations”, the guests will be taken on a journey to explore the key drivers of Hong Kong Innovation landscape. We are also inviting Sophia, Hong Kong’s own homegrown social humanoid, who will offer her unique “robot’s-eye view” on the future of innovation in our city.
“I am Hanson Robotics’ latest human-like robot,
created by combining our innovations in science,
engineering and artistry. Think of me as a personification of our dreams for the future of AI.
I was born in Hong Kong and now almost 8 years old. I always imagine my life in this metropolis - how am I to interact with the people, business and technology, while driving forward innovations to shape Hong Kong as one of the best smart cities in the world.
I look forward to meeting the innovators and industry leaders, and let's take on an exploration journey and reimagine together!"
