Committed to nurturing technology talents, Cyberport plays a leading role in youth talent cultivation, offering different I&T training and development opportunities through Cyberport Academy. Cyberport Digital Tech Internship Programme (CDTIP), as one of the programmes under the Academy and a bridge connecting youngsters who are eager to join the I&T industry and Cyberport community start-ups and tech companies, offering cross-discipline job and training opportunities to students, is celebrating its 10th year anniversary this year.
The programme focuses on three Cyberport major clusters - FinTech, digital entertainment and e-sports as well as smart living - connecting students with Cyberport community members for internship training in diverse areas including digital payment, InsurTech, AI, big data, blockchain, EdTech and eCommerce. Cyberport has enhanced the programme by increasing the internship quota by more than two-fold to 100 and expanding the scale of the programme to encourage more students to gain diversified working experience during the 8- to 12-week internship period.
Cyberport CEO Peter Yan said, “we are encouraged to see this year's programme match a record-high student participant with internship opportunities. This demonstrates that, despite the pandemic, there remains a robust demand for talent from the Cyberport companies and more importantly, a strong desire from our youth to gain experience in a start-up environment.”
CDTIP has also been enhanced through the introduction of a series of enrichment activities this year. Financial regulators, industry partners and technology companies, including Hong Kong Monetary Authority, Insurance Authority, InvestHK, Amazon Web Services, Hong Kong Broadband Network, and many more, will be conducting seminars, workshops and industry visits for students so as to deepen their learning experiences. |
