FTAHK supports the development of Hong Kong as a leading FinTech centre by:
Creating a unified voice for the Hong Kong FinTech ecosystem
Bringing together the diverse parts of the community
Learning from existing leaders and nurturing the next generation of talent
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.
Collaboration is vital for the success of fintech in Hong Kong. FTAHK provides the ideal platform for Visa to foster new partnerships and innovation for communities, businesses, and government. As founding partner, Visa believes an open, collaborative ecosystem is crucial as the city matures into a global fintech hub.
Membership of the FTAHK gives us access to new ideas, fresh input for Hong Kong and that we can take to the global EY network as well as using discussions with clients.
As a FinTech Startup, we benefit from the advocacy, where we the startup community can be represented to advocate for what we think is right to HKMA and other regulators.
