About the Cheng Kar Shun Digital Hub


Origins

The Cheng Kar Shun Digital Hub is located in Jesus College’s new Cheng Yu Tung Building, in the heart of Oxford city centre.

The founding of the College’s new building, and the development of the Digital Hub, was made possible in large part thanks to a transformative £15 million donation from Hong Kong entrepreneur and philanthropist, Dr Henry Cheng Kar Shun, through his London-based property company Knight Dragon. The development is named in honour of Dr Cheng’s father, Dr Cheng Yu Tung. The Digital Hub is named after Dr Henry Cheng Kar Shun himself.
