THEME/活动主题:

The Rise of Sino-Canadian Technical Power in the Greater Bay Area

Canada is the birthplace of modern artificial intelligence (AI) technologies. Today, many Canadian and international students who have contributed firsthand to the successful Canadian high-tech story reunite in the Greater Bay Area, China, the hot land of start-ups, to continue their academic exploration or to commission their entrepreneurial journey. There are numerous good examples of this kind we love that vividly represent the rich product of Sino-Canada educational interaction. We want to invite them to join us in this event to tell us how their connection with Canada has helped shaped their business and, more importantly, to share their stories and insights they have learned throughout their journey.

The event also offers a chance to the alumni and the extended network over drinks and refreshments, while also getting a chance to generate new business opportunities.

加拿大是现代人工智能（AI）的发源地，而中国的大湾区是全世界冉冉升起的AI创业孵化基地。

加拿大的AI技术领先在哪里？AI可以应用在哪些领域？

正在做高科技创业的校友们可以利用哪些资源来kickstart?

我们希望通过Technovation 2019, 能让更多加拿大海归了解到科技领域的创业及投资机会。

除了邀请到AI方面的专家到现场进行分享，另外我们还会邀请5个拥有加拿大背景的科技项目进行现场路演。

大家聆听精彩的前沿AI技术及创业分享、发现商机、结交其他加拿大海归及加拿大大学校友之余，还能享受下午茶(含软饮及啤酒畅饮和甜品)。
