Alumnus Samuel Lam’s company participated in the Drone Light Show taking place at the Wan Chai harbourfront area from 27 to 30 September and 2 October. The show was one of the key programmes of “Night Vibes Hong Kong” organised by the HKSAR Government. With numerous drones aligned in a number of Chinese art and historical cultural patterns, the drone light show brought a new vibe to the National Day and Mid-Autumn celebratory performances. The China Media Group also arranged an interview for alumnus Lam to share the concept and thoughts on the project, as his company was the official creative, marketing and sales and strategic partner of the project. Alumnus Dr Vincent Ho was also interviewed in his capacity of member of the National Committee of CPPCC of the Jilin Province.
