The School of Economics and Management (SEM) at the University of Science and Technology Beijing held a mid-term review for its 11th Entrepreneurship Practice Camp on the morning of July 4.
Five student teams presented their startup progress at the event: Spark Think Tank, LiLu Smart Desktop Pet, Green Light Shield, Lingwu Innovation Technology, and Yuguo Tianqing.
Qin Yifang, director of the Alumni and Development Office, hosted the session. Alumni judges included Lin Shaorong (Class of 1987), chairman of China Resources International Development; Liu Xingyu (Class of 1989), shareholder of North America BCL Mining Group; Wei Guoliang (Class of 1997), chairman of Beijing Zhongguan Interconnection Technology Incubator; Liu Wei (MBA Class of 2002), deputy general manager of Beijing Jingneng Huaqing Integrated Energy; and Zhong Yangang (MBA Class of 2012), deputy general manager of CCECC International Engineering Consultants. Wu Sen, Party Secretary of SEM, and Liu Yan, Deputy Party Secretary and Vice Dean, also attended.
Each team reported its current status, practical challenges, and next-phase plans. The judges analyzed every project, praised its strengths, and recommended concrete improvements while weighing market potential against future uncertainties.
Wu Sen thanked the alumni judges, experts, and students for their longstanding support. She noted that the camp, initiated and continuously funded by alumni for over a decade, serves as both an incubation platform for innovation and entrepreneurship and a bridge between academic theory and practice. She also urged the teams to advance steadily.
