The Hong Kong Productivity Council (HKPC) has invited Mr. Paul Lee, Senior Partner of InnoEdge Consulting, to deliver a seminar on “AI‑Empowered Design Thinking: Manufacturing Excellence and Digitalisation” on 2 March 2026. In recognition of InnoEdge’s expertise in driving innovation and transformation, the firm has also been invited to serve as the supporting organisation for this important industry event.

To enrich the seminar with practical, local insights, we have invited one of our outstanding Design Thinkers, Mr. Kenny Kong, Co‑Founder of Cool Limited, to share his real‑life success stories. He will showcase how design thinking has been effectively applied within his company to improve products, processes, and customer experience in the Hong Kong context.

This seminar will delve into how design thinking can be strategically applied in the manufacturing industry in Hong Kong, offering participants a clear and practical understanding of the design thinking framework. It will also highlight how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be integrated into each stage of the innovation process, opening up new opportunities for manufacturing excellence, digitalisation, and competitive advantage.

Designed for distributors, manufacturers, and local representatives interested in the manufacturing sector, the seminar aims to equip participants with cutting‑edge industry knowledge and actionable insights. By combining theory, tools, and a real Hong Kong case study, the event will empower attendees to understand and implement design thinking and AI‑enabled approaches within their own organisations.
