Web 3.0 Unleashed – Embracing the Opportunities of Decentralization

Code: 230531N-CE

CFA Society Hong Kong is proud to present our inaugural Web 3.0 flagship in-person event, featuring distinguished industry gurus from the 4 key pillars of Web 3.0, including CeFi (Centralized Finance), DeFi (Decentralized Finance), NFT (Non-fungible tokens) and Gaming / AI. This event is a must-attend for the Society’s members looking to stay ahead of the curve in the rapidly evolving world of Web 3.0 and to network with like-minded professionals.

The Hong Kong government has stepped up its commitment to promoting the development and adoption of Web 3.0 technologies recently, aiming to boost the city’s position as a booming virtual asset hub. The government also identified blockchain as a key technology for driving innovation and growth in the city’s financial and technology sectors. It is instrumental to understand this fast-developing economy to stay competitive as a CFA charterholder.

This event is an important part of our efforts, bringing together distinguished industry practitioners to share their insights and ideas on the future of Web 3.0. Speakers will shed light on their respective expertise, followed by Q&A and panel discussion. Whether you’re a seasoned veteran or new to the world of Web 3.0, this event is a great chance to connect with industry gurus and gain a deeper understanding of the forces shaping the future of finance.

(Drinks and light refreshments will be provided at the event. This is a networking event and no CPT credit hours will be awarded.)
