Growgreen to Participate in the Hong Kong Electronics Fair (Spring Edition) and Invited to Hong Kong InnoEX Collaborating to Promote a Sustainable, Low-Carbon, and Socially Inclusive Lifestyle across Different Sectors and Age Groups
Hong Kong – Apr 12, 2024 – Growgreen Limited announces its participation in the “Hong Kong Spring Electronics Fair” at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre from April 13 to April 16, 2024 (Booth: 5C-A09) and has also been invited to the “Hong Kong InnoEX” (Booth: 3C-C01). The company will showcase its aspara® Smart Growers.
Growgreen has developed a smart hydroponics planting system by integrating innovative technologies. The system enhances the efficiency of indoor planting through the integration of electronics, optics, biology, chemistry, and agricultural science, as well as software, mobile applications, and cloud-based databases. It simulates the natural functioning of the environment to provide optimal growth conditions for plants while being environmentally friendly. The company has also developed a digital system that encompasses the natural ecosystem, providing valuable life science data for research and applications in various fields.
Growgreen leverages green technology and big data application solutions to provide a range of socially impactful solutions through its technology-enabled farming solutions. The aspara® Smart Growers showcase three key focus areas of Growgreen’s business.
First, we are committed to promoting green living and sustainability. The aspara® Smart Growers have earned the Product Carbon Footprint Certification from The Chinese Manufacturers’ Association of Hong Kong, reducing carbon emissions by 50%. Customers can grow fresh vegetables in an eco-friendly and energy-efficient manner, reducing their carbon footprint, enjoying the pleasure of cultivation, and driving the implementation of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) goals within enterprises.
Secondly, we place great emphasis on STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) education, enabling students to deeply explore the mysteries of natural sciences and enhance their understanding of innovative technologies. The smart growers have been awarded the “Q STEM Mark” certification, making it a suitable STEM education tool. Integrating the database and the aspara STEM Academy™ curriculum, students can cultivate their interest in science by combining knowledge from fields such as biology, physics, chemistry, statistics, data analysis, and programming, laying a solid foundation for their future career development.
Thirdly, we are concerned about the mental health of the elderly and caregivers. aspara® Smart Growers provide a variety of psychotherapy and stress-relief activities. Collaborative research with the School of Nursing at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University has shown that through the use of the aspara® Smart Growers for technology-assisted horticultural therapy activities, the stress levels of the elderly and their caregivers can be effectively reduced, and their happiness index can be enhanced. The system can also store mental health data of the elderly for more in-depth research or treatment.
Dr Humphrey Leung, the CEO of Growgreen stated, “aspara® Smart Growers are not just green technology products, as they can be widely applied to different age groups, genders, and social strata. Through these exhibitions, we hope to collaborate with various partners to build more beautiful and sustainable green activities, helping to integrate people from different segments of the community and create a more harmonious, healthier, and sustainable green society.”
