Advancing Hong Kong’s FinTech ecosystem
How to maintain Hong Kong’s status as a FinTech Hub?
Hong Kong is one of the top global financial centers and its financial services industry contributes 23% of the total GDP. It has also emerged as the leading FinTech hub in APAC, which is key to cementing Hong Kong’s regional and international competitiveness in the long run. It is clear to us that technologies and cloud-based solutions can benefit FinTechs and the industry greatly throughout their growth journey. However, hurdles such as implementation difficulty and the talent gap, especially in product innovation, remain.
As part of our Smarter Digital City initiative, we collaborated with Cyberport to launch the “Igniting Startups & FinTechs Program”. We have brought together a suite of Google solutions ranging from cloud computing and digital marketing to maps integration that enable startups to scale and pivot quickly to address new opportunities in today’s rapidly changing environment. We hope our Smarter Digital City initiative and strategic collaborations with industry players will help Hong Kong advance as an international financial center, powered by technology and innovation.
