As a Fintech startup, FTAHK has helped connect us to different industry people and resources that can enhance our profile to the financial market, prospects, and potential investors. By actively take part in many of FTAHK initiatives such as Hong Kong Fintech Week, their monthly committee workshops and social gatherings and that have really helped us elevate our profile to the industry.
Building the ecosystem for the Fintech community is extremely important and a role that FTAHK is doing so well. We at GoImpact are proud to be an active member. Our collaboration with FTAHK on Green, Fin and Tech has delivered an impactful series last year that we aim to continue with, to highlight the Green agenda that Fintech is well positioned to advance.
The quality of FTAHK's events is exceptional. The engaging panel, discussions, and networking opportunities provided valuable insights and connections. The expert speakers shared latest and valuable insights. The exchange trips stood out as a remarkable highlight. This experience underscored FTAHK's unwavering commitment to offering unique and valuable opportunities to its members.
From the WeLab's perspective, the biggest benefits from the Fintech Association can be divided into two buckets.
1. Networking opportunities, meeting other members and industry players to learn about new trends, and to discuss potential issues that all of us are potentially facing.
2. Advocacy, and the role that the Fintech Association plays as being one of the key industry groups to be the voice for Fintech.
