He also noted that deep collaboration begins with a bold vision but requires concrete action and careful implementation. As an example, he cited the establishment of the Asia Pacific Higher Education Research Partnership, which comprises 30 member institutions, including leading universities worldwide. President Mok also joined fellow university leaders at the Presidents\u2019 Roundtable, \u201cThe AI Century: Will Asia Pacific Lead It?\u201d<\/p><p>In Bali, HSUHK signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Adamson University in the Philippines to establish collaboration and exchange.
