Activities including public lectures, exhibitions and demonstrations, mobile app workshops and the first Mind Drive Competition for secondary school students were held to introduce the latest digital innovations to the public and to share how HKBU integrates these technologies into teaching and learning.

The Mind Drive Competition (Secondary School Section) was a posture-controlled car racing competition. All participants had to attend three training workshops organised by the Department in early March. About 100 secondary school students from 23 secondary schools in Hong Kong competed in teams, showing off programmed postures that they designed themselves as well as displaying body coordination. The champion team was Carmel Secondary School, the first runner-up was Christian Alliance Cheng Wing Gee College, and the second runner-up was Pui Kiu Middle School and Tsung Tsin Christian Academy respectively.
