Dr. Lui Che Woo’s legacy extends far beyond casinos and hotels. Here at Peking University, the Lui Che Woo Building stands as a testament to his dedication to life sciences. In 2017, Dr. Lui donated a substantial sum of RMB 120 million to Peking University. This generous gift established the “Lui Che Woo School of Life Sciences Foundation”. The foundation funded this very building, dedicated to research and development in life sciences. The Lui Che Woo Building isn’t just a structure of brick and mortar. It’s a hub of innovation, a place where groundbreaking research takes place. It’s a seven-story building, boasting an impressive 26,900 square meters of floor space. Inside these walls, Peking University’s brightest minds work tirelessly. They explore the mysteries of life, pushing the boundaries of scientific knowledge. Dr. Lui’s vision was to create a space where young scientists could thrive. He wanted to foster a collaborative environment that would contribute significantly to advancements in life sciences. The Lui Che Woo Building, unveiled in a ceremony in June 2018, embodies that vision. It represents Dr. Lui’s belief in the power of education and research to shape a better future, not just for China, but for the entire world. His contribution to Peking University ensures that the Lui Che Woo Building will continue to inspire innovation and discovery for generations to come.
