Besides nurturing local designers, it should evaluate the level of technological development of Hong Kong's clothing industry and to see whether it is lagging behind it major competitors. The objective of this study is to develop a utility for measuring the technological development of Hong Kong's clothing industry; to evaluate the technological level of Hong Kong's clothing manufacturers as compared with Italian counterpart with the utility developed under this proposal; and to identify the kind of technology that can enhance the competitive edge of Hong Kong's clothing industry. |
