The Knowledge Exchange Office (KEO) is a unit within The University of Hong Kong (HKU). The office is responsible for developing and implementing the institution’s long-term strategy for knowledge exchange and maximizing the research impact in the community.[1]
Background
The University Grants Committee delivered the idea of “knowledge transfer” among the community and universities. From the academic year 2009/10, a yearly recurrent funding for universities to invest in knowledge transfer has been approved by the Legislative Council.[2] Therefore, the Knowledge Exchange Office was established in 2010.
