While the event sounds productive, I hope the focus on 'innovation-led education' translates into practical, hands-on learning for students and not just theoretical seminars. The real test is in the labs and projects that follow.

The theme is very timely. With drones, satellite tech, and modern aviation, electronics is the backbone. Glad to see a traditional lamp-lighting to start – it's nice to blend our culture with futuristic vision. 👏
