The White House just hosted a groundbreaking Crypto Summit on March 7th, but with no significant implications for regulatory policies and market sentiment. Amidst the rapid-changing Web3 market, Hong Kong is set to make a difference - With the Hong Kong Web3 Festival 2025 drawing near, global pioneers and experts in Web3 will be gathered to share invaluable ideas, explore the future, and make new rules for the industry.
On April 7th, the Mainstage “Spring” will convene top figures across industries, with the Honourable Paul CHAN Mo-po, GBM, GBS, MH, JP, Financial Secretary of the Government of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, sharing updates on Hong Kong’s virtual asset policies. Christina Choi, Executive Director of Investment Products, Securities and Futures Commission, Hong Kong, will elaborate on the updates of Hong Kong’s virtual assets landscape and the potential collaboration between the asset management and Web3 industry. Following Christina will be Duncan Chiu, Legislative Council Member (Technology & Innovation Constituency), Hong Kong, who will be discussing the latest development on Hong Kong’s stablecoins.
Henry Ma, Executive Vice President and CIO of WeBank and Director of WeBank Technology Services, will share exciting practices from the FISCO BCOS. SHEN Jianguang, Vice President and Chief Economist of JD.com, Inc., will discuss the global trends in stablecoin development.
An enlightening, regulation-focused panel discussion will then take place, featuring David Lee, Chairman, Global FinTech Institute, Genki Oda, Chairman of Japan Virtual and Crypto assets Exchange Association, and Kevin Goldstein, Co-founder and Managing Partner of Kee Global Advisors.
Bitcoin Magazine’s CEO David Bailey, also a participant of the White House Crypto Summit, will physically attend the Festival with updates of the US’ cryptocurrency policies. Jason Brett, Managing Director of Key Bridge Advisors, and CHEN Zhong, Professor and Doctoral supervisor at Peking University, will deliver keynote presentations regarding Web3 in China and the US.
Taking place at the iconic Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre (HKCEC) across 14,000㎡ — 1.5 times the size of previous editions — the festival promises a vibrant environment for networking, learning, and collaboration. It features nearly 40 forums covering diverse topics, bringing together more than 400 global experts, professionals, investors and pioneers in the Web3 industry. Notably, this year’s four stages are splendidly designed around the four seasons, combined with elements of typical traditional Chinese architecture.
