From December 1 to 5, 2025, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), in partnership with the World Economic Forum (WEF), hosted the 2025 edition of the prestigious Young Global Leaders Education Module.
The flagship event, themed “Our AI Future is Now: Reflections and Next Directions,” brought together 35 influential young leaders from 24 countries and regions for an intensive exploration of artificial intelligence’s societal and economic implications. The program also served as a key milestone ahead of HKUST’s upcoming 35th Anniversary, underscoring the University’s commitment to fostering innovation-led global impact.
Marking the third consecutive year as the WEF’s exclusive academic partner in Greater China for the module, HKUST reaffirmed its role as a leading convener of dialogue on technology, sustainability, and leadership. Through curated seminars, fireside chats, and experiential sessions, participants examined AI’s transformative potential across sectors including healthcare, finance, climate action, and creative industries.
