🌟 HKU CIB Student Chapter Wins 2026 CIB Future Leaders Award✨

The HKU CIB Student Chapter has been awarded the 2026 CIB Sebestyén Future Leaders Award. Their project, “Breaking Language Barriers in Knowledge Exchange,” aims to develop multilingual, expert-validated videos using AI technology. This innovative approach addresses language challenges in the construction industry, making key resources more accessible worldwide. 🌐

The Chapter, composed of 223 research postgraduates from HKU’s Faculty of Architecture, will receive €2,500 to support project implementation. Their work focuses on creating accurate translations in Chinese, Thai, and Italian, promoting safer and more productive construction practices across diverse communities.

Led by Professor Fan Xue and Professor Isabelle Y. S. Chan from the Department of Real Estate and Construction, with daily operation managed by PhD candidates Sou Han Chen and Jingqing Hong, the project employs a human-centred, expert-reviewed workflow integrating AI translation, terminology databases, and voice morphing. This effort exemplifies cutting-edge research aimed at transforming global construction knowledge sharing.
