In an ongoing effort to further Hong Kong’s drive to become a leading global fintech hub, a fintech industry seminar organized by the Fintech Research Project of the School in early June yielded new insights from government authorities and industry players. The seminar pointed the way forward across strategy setting, innovation and talent building. This industry dialogue followed on and expanded from a study conducted by the School earlier that has provided recommendations on Hong Kong’s fintech development.
During this seminar entitled “Hong Kong’s Way Forward to Becoming a Leading Global Fintech Hub: An Industry Dialogue”, leaders overseeing fintech industry promotion and development as well as industry practitioners brought their knowledge and experience to explore and steer the development pathways for Hong Kong’s fintech industry. The views shared by participants were captured and collated through interactive sessions and live polls at the event.
Moderated by Dean of HKUST Business School Professor TAM Kar Yan, the panel featured Mr. Charles NG, Associate Director-General of Investment Promotion of Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK); Dr. King AU, Executive Director of the Financial Services Development Council (FSDC); and Mr. Nelson CHOW, Chief Fintech Officer of the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA). Their thought-provoking views encouraged active participation from diverse stakeholders in the fintech sector.
