　「今天想吃什麼？」這是一句在常人世界中司空見慣的問候。用一頓美食結束美好的一天，成為現今社會的飲食風尚。但對於患有吞咽障礙的人來說，能吃一頓簡單並不奢華的餐食成了他們最大的奢望。

　「上學的時候，我有個非常好的朋友，每每去他家做客，看到他家中三個患有吞咽障礙的親屬，我就非常難過，很想幫助他們。」「那時我就想，要是我自己能生產出這種易食產品就好了。」強有力的使命感，萌生了周益俊想打造一款適用於吞咽障礙人士的易食產品的創業之心。

　但打造易食產品並非周益俊的第一次創業經歷，而立之年的周益俊早在學生時代便開啟了自己的創業之路。

　2011年，剛從香港中文大學畢業的周益俊，瞄準了跨境電商行業，踏上創業追夢之路。「那幾年，是賣方市場的跨境電商行業不愁銷路的時代，而香港由於面積小，所以市場需求也就小。在地大物博的內地有着廣闊的市場，於是我就把我的進貨渠道全部轉向了與香港一河之隔的深圳。華強北的所有產品我們都賣，通過網絡我們賣到了歐美和東南亞，平均一年下來營收還是非常可觀的。」2014年，周益俊開始把貿易重心傾向餐飲類，最後直接成為國際餐飲產品的代理商。

　躊躇滿志的周益俊也有想家的時候。「我在台北、新加坡、杜拜都住過一年半載，但還是覺得離家太遠了，我想住在一個回家不用搭飛機的城市。」2017年，周益俊回到香港，一次偶然的參觀，讓他得知了前海深港現代服業合作區的情況，也看到了前海為香港青年栽下的「梧桐樹」。經過一番考察，周益俊和他的小夥伴們決定把公司註冊落戶到前海。

　「我們順利通過了香港科學園孵化計劃，成功拿到了前海的相關補貼。感到最高興的是，前海還為我們提供了人才公寓，這對我和小夥伴們來說，簡直就是莫大的鼓舞和最大力度的支持。也就是從那時起，我和我的團隊勵志要在前海放飛最多的夢想，追尋最大的創業機遇。」經過近兩年的籌備，2020年6月周益俊攜團隊創立的柏絲科技（深圳）有限公司正式入駐前海，開始投入幫助有吞咽障礙的病人和老人進食的吞咽易產品研發。

　周益俊介紹，柏絲科技所研發的吞咽易產品，目前在深圳港科大研究院和港中大研究院都設有實驗室。「我們的產品目前已經在香港主板第一家上市的護老集團即松齡護老集團和香港浸會醫院等多家專業性養老機構投入使用。在深圳，我們的產品獲得了招商局集團的認可，並在該集團旗下的養老機構獲得使用。此外，在廣州以及惠州等粵港澳大灣區內的50多家養老院也都有我們的產品。」

　功夫不負有心人，通過在前海的奮鬥，去年，吞咽易的四類產品從2000多隊參賽團隊中脫穎而出，一舉獲得第四屆前海粵港澳台青年創新創業大賽總決賽銅獎。周益俊和他的團隊又在「第七屆廣州（創青年）青年創新創業大賽港澳賽區」獲得冠軍。在「2020全球生物經濟創新創業大賽」中，柏絲科技憑藉吞咽易產品，榮膺大賽三等獎，同時獲得300萬元人民幣的獎金。

　Zhou Yijun: get over homesickness, chase dreams bravely

　--CEO of Bosi Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd.

　"What would you like to eat today?" This is a common greeting in the ordinary world. To end a good day with a good meal has become a fashion in today's society. But for people with dysphagia, even eating a simple meal has become their biggest luxury.

　"When I was at school, I had a good friend. When I visited his family and saw his three relatives with dysphagia, I was very sad and wanted to help them. At that time, I thought, it would be great if I could produce easy-to-eat products myself." Zhou Yijun's strong sense of mission has inspired his entrepreneurial spirit to create products suitable for people with dysphagia.

　The R&D of food products is not Zhou Yijun's first entrepreneurial experience. The 30-year-old Zhou started his own entrepreneurial road when he was a student.

　In 2011, Zhou, who just graduated from the Chinese University of Hong Kong, aimed at the cross-border e-commerce industry and embarked on the road of entrepreneurship and dream pursuit. "In those years, the cross-border e-commerce industry was in the seller's market, and I did not worry about sales. Due to the small area of Hong Kong, the market demand was limited. However, there was a huge market in the vast mainland, so I turned all my purchasing channels to Shenzhen. We sold all the products of Huaqiangbei, a notable retail area in Shenzhen that has one of the largest electronics markets in the world. We sold the products to Europe, America, and Southeast Asia through the Internet. The average revenue was very considerable every year. " In 2014, Zhou began to focus on catering trade and finally became an agent of international catering products.

　Zhou, who is full of ambition, is homesick sometimes. "I've lived in Taipei, Singapore, and Dubai for a year or several months respectively, but I still think those places are too far from home. I want to live in a city where I don't have to take a plane to get home. "In 2017, Zhou Yijun returned to Hong Kong. A casual visit made him know the situation of Qianhai Shenzhen-Hong Kong Modern Service Industry Cooperation Zone and what Qianhai has done for Hong Kong youth. After investigation, Zhou Yijun and his friends decided to register their company in Qianhai.

　"We have successfully passed the incubation program of Hong Kong Science and Technology Park and obtained relevant subsidies from Qianhai. What made me happy most is that Qianhai has also provided us with talent apartments, which is a great encouragement and support for my friends and me. Since then, my team and I have been determined to pursue dreams and the entrepreneurial opportunities in Qianhai as much as we can." After nearly two years of preparation, in June 2020, Bosi Technology (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd., founded by Zhou and his team, officially entered Qianhai and began to develop food brand Senior Deli to help patients with dysphagia and the elderly.

　According to Zhou Yijun, currently there are laboratories in the Shen Research Institute of the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology and the Chinese University of Hong Kong for the products of Senior Deli developed by Bosi Research Institute. "At present, our products have been put into use in many professional elderly-care institutions, such as Hong Kong Baptist Hospital and Pine Care Group, the first listed elderly care group on the main board of Hong Kong. In Shenzhen, our products have been recognized by China Merchants Group and used in its elderly-caring institutions. In addition, our products are also available in more than 50 nursing homes in the cities of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, such as Guangzhou and Huizhou. "

　Last year, Senior Deli's four categories of products stood out from more than 2000 teams and won the bronze medal in the final of the 4th Qianhai-Guangdong-Hong Kong-Taiwan Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition. In 2020, their project won the championship in the 7th Guangzhou Youth Innovation and Entrepreneurship Competition held by the Guangzhou Municipal Party Committee. In the 2020 Global Bio-Economy innovation and Entrepreneurship competition, Bosi Technology won the third prize in the competition by Senior Deli products and won 3 million yuan.
