As the President of the IOM3-HK branch, I am honored to serve as a judge for the Young Person Lecture Competition (HK Heat) this evening (19 Sep 2024). This event was a fantastic platform that showcased the talent and creativity of young presenters, and it was a privilege to be part of such an inspiring initiative. I was pleased to be joined on the judging panel by esteemed colleagues, including CityU Chair Professor JG Dai and our Council Member Franklin To. Their expertise and insights greatly enriched the evaluation process, making it a rewarding experience for all involved. A big thank you also goes to George Ho, James Yiu, and KL Lo for their invaluable on-site support. The competition not only highlights the innovative ideas of our youth but also fosters a spirit of collaboration and knowledge sharing among participants. Witnessing the enthusiasm and passion of the young presenters was truly uplifting and reinforces the importance of nurturing the next generation of leaders in our field. I eagerly look forward to seeing how these talented individuals will continue to grow and contribute to our industry. Thank you to everyone who played a part in making this event a success!
