Description
Launched in December 2016, MRP aims to encourage universities funded by the University Grants Committee (UGC) to collaborate with leading research institutes worldwide to conduct more theme-based inter-disciplinary and translational research and development (R&D) work in focused technology areas. Two projects: 1. Standalone Projects: The maximum funding support for standalone projects is HK$5 million per project. 2. Collaboration Projects involving multiple disciplines or research institutions: The maximum funding for collaboration projects is HK$10 million per project. A co-applicant can be a different unit of the same university, or a different local/non-local university/research institution.
