  Technologies and humanities are two important and intertwined aspects in
the modern society. In the 21st century, the fast advancing science and
technologies have touched every part of our human life. The new development
in humanities has created new ways to invent breakthrough technologies and
products. More and more human-tech blending methodologies have been adopted
and enhanced product design and even changed the landscaping of the
business, culture and society. In addition, a well-balanced individual in
technology and humanity can achieve more in both professional and personal
life.
   In this symposium, the technologists, investors and scholars from top
design houses, leading VC firms and institutions will share their
experience, thoughts and insights on the inter-dependency between
technologies and humanities and the significance of living a meaningful and
rewarding life.* *
