It includes curated taxonomies and more than 100 analytic models, all of which can be adapted to the needs of the business," said Vandana Iyer, Industry Manager. "The company employs a rich NLP core to facilitate contextual research insights that can drive critical business decisions in a more timely and accurate manner. In the pharmaceutical arena, some of the data sources that are harmonized for analysis include clinical trial data, research publications, patents, company profiles, products, and financials; in the consumer goods space the data sources also including e-commerce product listings and reviews, social media, Key Opinion Leaders and more."

Signals Analytics leverages the power of lexico-syntactic and semantic extraction modeling, deep learning, swarm intelligence, synthetic control frameworks, and neural networking concepts, which enable deep and broad coverage of otherwise disconnected data sources. Furthermore, it can efficiently cut the noise from the data repertoire to extract actionable intelligence.

The company has also created a COVID-19 Playbook to help pharmaceutical companies, biotechs, and public health agencies extract key insights to accelerate drug and vaccine development and repurpose existing drugs to combat the virus. All of the insights generated by the platform can be updated by expanding data sources to include more information and obtain insights pertaining to the progress of the clinical trials.

Hollo won the 2020 Microsoft Imagine Cup World Champion and the first team from Hong Kong to have won the World Champion since the launch of the Microsoft Imagine Cup in 2003.

 

Hollo Team members, Cameron van Breda (Final Year, Bachelor of Science), Ajit Krishna Namakkal Raghavendran (Year 3, Bachelor of Engineering) and Piyush Jha from India (Final Year, Bachelor of Engineering) met at HKU. The team noticed that mental health aid was not reaching the younger generations in their communities effectively and envision a future of tech-based, accessible, and comprehensive mental health management tools. With this in mind, Team Hollo developed a mental health companion web application leveraging Azure analytics and AI services to advance youth therapy practices.

Over 28,000 students from more than 200 countries registered to take part in the Microsoft Imagine Cup and only 10 teams were selected for the Asia Regional Final. Earlier in February this year, Hollo had won the title of World Finalist in the Asia Regional Final with their impactful solution. In winning the World Champion, the team won USD100,000, a mentoring session with Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella, and USD50,000 in Azure grants.

The Microsoft Imagine Cup aims to empower students to use their imagination and passion for technology to develop innovative and inclusive solutions that tackle key societal issues. Held online this year due to the pandemic, it is the first time a Hong Kong team took home the Cup, often called the "Olympics of student tech competitions."

Piyush is an HKU Final Year Engineering student from Delhi Public School, Indore who majors in Computer Science and minors in Finance. With a 97% score in the All India Senior School Certificate Examination, Piyush received the HKU Foundation Scholarship with a full tuition fee waiver and living allowance which is renewable for his entire undergraduate study at HKU. With HKU’s extensive global exchange network, Piyush was able to go on a summer exchange programme at the University of British Columbia in 2017. His outstanding GPA also won him the HKSAR Government Scholarship Fund – The Reaching Out Award for the exchange in Vancouver, Canada. On top of that, Piyush is a two-time recipient of the HKSAR Government Talent Development Scholarship for his extraordinary performance in international competitions involving technological innovation challenges and computer science hackathons.

Ajit is currently a Third Year Engineering student who majors in Computer Science at HKU. Originally from Chennai, he was raised in Hong Kong from a young age and has always been curious and innovative growing up. Since studying at HKU, he participated in various international competitions and was a Finalist in the Global Legal Hackathon for which he went to New York City to pitch in the finals. He is also a recipient of the Funding for Experiential Learning Projects from the Tam Wing Fan Innovation Wing of HKU. He has recently completed a 1-year internship in Asia’s leading digital asset company, BC Group.

When asked about how HKU has supported the team in pursuit of their tech aspirations, Team Hollo said, "iDendron at HKU has been a huge help to Hollo. It organised workshops for industry leaders and entrepreneurs to share with us their experiences and perspectives. We were also given networking opportunities to connect with potential elite founders from a wide spectrum of fields who have a common vision to create an impact to the world."

Team Hollo added, "The Faculty of Science’s new minor, Science Entrepreneurship, has brought us insights via critical analysis of enterprises and taught us the connection of academic knowledge with the real world. It is this minor that has enlightened us on how to create something impactful and feasible at the same time."

HKU Chief Innovation Officer Dr. Yiwu HE congratulates Team Hollo, "It demonstrated the growing culture of innovation and entrepreneurship on campus among both academics and students here at HKU. We should think not only in terms of pursuing a new idea or concept for discovery, but to facilitate excellent research that results in products that impacts the world. we hope HKU will incubate many successful companies with innovative products to help grow the high-tech industry and provide the younger generation with more opportunities in Hong Kong."

About HKU iDendron

iDendron, HKU Innovation & Entrepreneurship Hub, was launched in 2017 with the aim of nurturing entrepreneurial and innovative spirit on campus, incubating HKU early-stage startups, establishing interdisciplinary cooperation and engaging the community to support human endeavors and society developments.

Wistron Receives TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display Certification for Low Blue-Light Panels

TAIPEI, June 10, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — The recent surge in working from home and tele-education due to the COVID-19 pandemic has generated a new wave of demand. Personal computer peripherals such as keyboards, monitors, and notebook computers have all seen a large jump in sales. Communication during the pandemic means people are now spending more time video-conferencing on mobile phones, computers, and other displays. Their eyes are therefore being exposed to blue light for longer periods of time. Some quick-thinking IT companies such as Wistron are responding to this trend by taking the lead in incorporating the health requirements of end users. They are now improving the quality of eye protection at the hardware level without compromising on color accuracy. As a result, TUV Rheinland recently issued TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display certification for two panels from Wistron. The certification boosts buyer confidence by confirming that the panels comply with the relevant standards.

Wistron Receives TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display Certification for Low Blue-Light Panels
Wistron Receives TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display Certification for Low Blue-Light Panels

New research by the U.S. market research firm AC Nielsen has found that people today spend on average of more than 13 hours a day in front of a display. TUV Rheinland first launched the eye comfort revolution in the display market in 2014 by developing the first low blue-light standard for monitors. Traditional monitor safety standards were upgraded to the advanced eye protection standard, and a number of the related displays have since been developed by vendors with TUV Rheinland assistance. In March this year, TUV Rheinland partnered with Eyesafe® to launch TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display certification to promote good vision and keep pace with technological progress. The new standard is based on the TUV Rheinland low blue-light standard. More than 250 ophthalmologists and optometrists with experience in clinical health and safety research contributed to its development. Consumers can use the TUV Rheinland’s Certipedia.com to see which products have received this display certification.

Tony Chen, Deputy General Manager of Display BU at Wistron, says: "Applying for TUV Rheinland Eyesafe Display certification not only confirmed that our product complies with leading management standards on blue-light and color performance. In keeping with the trend towards consumer health, this also showed that Wistron has always been at the forefront of the market developing electronic products that are beneficial to the health of customers."

Wistron is one of the key suppliers of consulting services and communication products for the top 10 ICT brands in the world. Its products encompass notebooks, tablets, desktop computers, monitors, portable navigation devices, servers, and network storage equipment. Wistron strives to supply consumers with popular innovative electronic products and help customers market their brands around the world.

Red Dot winner 2020 – Absen Venus Series

The Red Dot Design Award is one of the most sought-after international seals of quality for good design. Established in 1955, the Product Design award is presented to the best products created each year, as decided by a jury of 40 international experts on product innovation.

Winners of the award are judged on a range of elements, including innovation, functionality, quality, and ecological compatibility. Commenting on the winning VN Series, the Red Dot Award’s jury praised "a particularly high flexibility and durability which makes the Venus series universally applicable in various usage scenarios."

"We’re delighted to have been presented a Red Dot award for Product Design," said Amy Tang, VP of product at Absen. "The VN Series was designed with users in the field in mind every step of the way. Not only does the product deliver a visually stunning performance, it is radically different to what is currently available on the market and will see customers save on weight and cost, without compromising on the performance of the product".

The Venus series is an innovative LED display specifically designed for concerts and festivals due to its ability to create super-sized screens at speed.
