Details of the project exhibition are as follows:

Arrangements

Students are required to stand by their posters to answer questions about their projects when the judge panel comes and views their posters during the InnoShow.
Each project group should have one student on duty between 10:00 am-3:00 pm, so that the judges can find someone there to demonstrate the project to them.
A table is provided for the project group to set up demonstrations.
You may use a notebook at the exhibition. Your notebook can access the Internet through HKU WiFi Network. Make sure that the network card of your notebook has been registered to use HKU ACEnet, and select “University WiFi” to connect.
