Foster Wright, CoinDesk President, said, "Asia stands as a global powerhouse for Web3, boasting tens of millions of crypto users, blockchain developers, and governments at the forefront of regulatory innovation. Hong Kong has strategically positioned itself as a pivotal digital assets hub in this dynamic region. Consensus has consistently served as a global event, bringing together all facets of the cryptocurrency, blockchain, and Web3 community. Consensus Hong Kong will continue this legacy, specifically emphasizing thought leadership to foster tangible business growth. Attendees can anticipate learning best practices from global experts and cultivating relationships that propel their businesses onto the international stage."
Consensus Hong Kong will deliver a detailed picture of a new digital age in which tokenization and artificial intelligence increasingly shape our daily lives. Its rich program covers cryptocurrencies, tokenization, and the latest fintech and blockchain innovations. It explores Web3's influence on culture communities, grapples with the opportunities and challenges posed by new AI, data management, and privacy technologies, and addresses how governments are dealing with these sweeping changes.
Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK) welcomes and supports Consensus in picking Hong Kong to expand into Asia. King Leung, Head of Financial Services and FinTech of InvestHK said, "Hong Kong is on an exciting journey of Web3 evolution as we embrace frontier technologies such as real-world assets (RWA) tokenization from investment warrants to real estate to intellectual property to deliver new impact in financial services as well as other economic sectors. The arrival of Consensus is a testament to Hong Kong's world-class aspiration and development in our Web3 sector, which continues to attract entrepreneurs, talent, and investment. This conference will offer a phenomenal platform to inspire innovation, attract tech leaders and builders, and most importantly, catalyze to elevate our capabilities as a leading international financial center to serve the broader real economy better."
Mr Kenneth Wong, General Manager, MICE and Cruise of the Hong Kong Tourism Board, said, "With our comprehensive bidding support, we are excited that Consensus makes Hong Kong its first destination to expand its global footprint beyond North America. It is a vote of confidence that this flagship crypto and Web3 conference picks Hong Kong as the city provides a fertile ground for businesses and industries. The event will benefit infinitely from the city's pulling power for investors, innovators, and speakers, which will also serve to drive economic returns and sector advancement. The city looks forward to giving participants enriched experiences and growing this event for long-term success."
