The good news for this year is that we are witnessing better and stronger teams year from year. Here are the 3 key highlights.
1. We had record high in terms of number of applications this year.
2. We had richer varieties of #FinTech innovations this year, such as #InsurTech, #RegTech, #Tokenization, #AI on HR in Financial Services.
3. We also appreciated more collaboration of FinTech #startups #entrepreneurs and financial services incumbents #leaders to #cocreate better customer experience, products and services, and innovate new business models. From competition to collaboration.
With this foundation and FinTech ecosystem that we have built for Hong Kong, plus initiatives like HKMA #FinTech2025 and #CDI, #GBA, #ESG, #InsuranceConnect, etc., We are expecting even better innovations coming in the next few years.
Congrats to all of you including myself and be grateful to be a part of the FinTech innovation journey for Hong Kong. Thank you.
