Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2025 gathers global pioneers at HKCEC to shape the future of Web3, featuring key regulators, industry leaders, and a diverse program across 40 forums in a stunning seasonal-themed venue.
The White House just hosted a groundbreaking Crypto Summit on March 7th, but with no significant implications for regulatory policies and market sentiment. Amidst the rapid-changing Web3 market, Hong Kong is set to make a difference – With the Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2025 drawing near, global pioneers and experts in Web3 will be gathered to share invaluable ideas, explore the future, and make new rules for the industry.
On April 7th, the Mainstage “Spring” will convene top figures across industries, with the Honourable Paul CHAN Mo-po, GBM, GBS, MH, JP, Financial Secretary of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, sharing updates on Hong Kong’s virtual asset policies. Christina Choi, Executive Director of Investment Products, Securities and Futures Commission, Hong Kong, will elaborate on the updates of Hong Kong’s virtual assets landscape and the potential collaboration between the asset management and Web3 industry. Following Christina will be Duncan Chiu, Legislative Council Member (Technology & Innovation Constituency), Hong Kong, who will be discussing the latest development on Hong Kong’s stablecoins.
Henry Ma, Executive Vice President and CIO of WeBank and Director of WeBank Technology Services, will share exciting practices from the FISCO BCOS. SHEN Jianguang, Vice President and Chief Economist of JD.com, Inc., will discuss the global trends in stablecoin development.
An enlightening, regulation-focused panel discussion will then take place, featuring David Lee, Chairman, Global FinTech Institute, Genki Oda, Chairman of Japan Virtual and Crypto assets Exchange Association, and Kevin Goldstein, Co-founder and Managing Partner of Kee Global Advisors.
