Fintech in Hong Kong - Canadian Technology Accelerator

Hong Kong (HK) is a leading international financial centre, the 3rd largest after New York and London according to the latest rankings of the Global Financial Centres Index. The city hosts the Asia-Pacific  headquarters for many of the world's large banks, insurances, and asset managers due to its light regulation and strong rule of law.

As the HK Government has been trying to increase the competitiveness of the city's financial sector, the government has been issuing new digital bank and insurance licenses. Along with the rise of new technologies like AI, machine learning, and blockchain, traditional banks, insurers, and asset managers are looking to collaborate with fintech companies to stay competitive.

This presents significant opportunities for Canadian technology providers in the financial technology (fintech) sector. This Canadian Technology Accelerator (CTA) program in Hong Kong aims to help Canadian fintech businesses navigate this market and connect with potential partners, buyers, and investors.
