It was a pleasure for our founder and CEO, William Lam, to join the Hong Kong delegation on a remarkable journey to the Middle East, to promote Hong Kong's FinTech advantage and explore exciting opportunities in the region.
Over the course of 10 days, we had the privilege of visiting several cities in the Middle East, including Riyadh, Doha, Dubai, and Abu Dhabi. It is an invaluable opportunity to engage in fruitful discussions with local FinTech leaders and immerse ourselves in the vibrant FinTech ecosystem.
A highlight of our visit was attending the prestigious "Dubai FinTech Summit 2024," where we gained valuable insights and networked with key industry players. Additionally, we had been granted a chance meeting with and visiting esteemed organizations such as The Garage, the region's largest tech accelerator, as well as visiting Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) Authority , Qatar Science & Technology Park, Qatar Investment Authority, HSBC Saudi (SAB) , Ministry of Investment (Saudi Arabia) (MISA) , Dubai Department of Economy and Tourism (DET) , Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) and Hub71, Abu Dhabi's Unique Global Tech Ecosystem.
During the visit, it was our honour to witness the signing ceremony of the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between the Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) and the Financial Services Development Council (FSDC). With leadership of this new strategic alliance including, H.E. Yousuf Al-Jaida, CEO of Qatar Financial Centre (QFC) Authority, Joseph Chan, Under Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau (FSTB), and Daniel Fung , Dr. King Au of Financial Services Development Council. We believe that this MOU signage will undoubtedly further solidify the commitment to fostering mutual growth and innovation between two places.
Once again, we are immensely grateful for being part of this visiting team, and we extend our heartfelt thanks to the Invest Hong Kong & Cyberport Hong Kong for their unwavering support and facilitation throughout this incredible journey.
