Anchoring this transformative wave are three standout conferences that have captured the imagination of FinTech aficionados and industry professionals alike: Shanghai’s INCLUSION·Conference on the Bund, Hong Kong FinTech Week, and Singapore FinTech Festival. These annual gatherings not only exhibit the region’s FinTech prowess but also foster knowledge exchange, networking, and collaborative innovation. Through September to November, we look at what these three FinTech events have to offer.

Shanghai is an internationally renowned financial center in China.

In 2012, it surpassed Melbourne, Australia; in 2014, it surpassed Osaka, Japan, and Sydney, Australia; in 2016, it overtook Seoul, South Korea; and in 2018, for the first time, it outranked Tokyo, Japan. Now, Shanghai is poised to become one of the top global financial centers in the world, like New York, London, and Tokyo.

Set against the iconic backdrop of the Bund, Shanghai’s INCLUSION·Conference seamlessly integrates the city’s rich traditions with its visionary aspirations. In China, inclusive digital technologies are the driving force behind Shanghai’s rapid rise among global financial hubs. The exploration in frontier technologies such as AI are also propelling Shanghai beyond traditional financial technology towards frontier digital technologies.

This year’s conference will take place from September 7 to 9, focusing on driving financial inclusion through technological advancement and policy innovation. Hosted by Shanghai, the event has etched its reputation for encompassing a diverse spectrum of themes, ranging from AI, blockchain, digital payments to sustainable finance and beyond. Beyond technological advancements, the conference also places significant emphasis on technological ethics and inclusivity.

A Confluence of Expertise: Common Threads

While distinct in location and thematic focus, these conferences share pivotal attributes that underscore their significance. First and foremost, they serve as critical showcases of Asia’s FinTech trajectory, casting a spotlight on innovation and kindling the flames of future breakthroughs. Moreover, they foster cross-industry alliances, galvanizing partnerships that have the potency to redefine the contours of the FinTech landscape.

The shared emphasis on disseminating knowledge and facilitating education is another compelling thread.
