The financial landscape is experiencing its most profound transformation since the advent of electronic trading. Two revolutionary forces – Web3 and artificial intelligence (AI) – are converging to reshape how we think about value, ownership, and investment decision-making.

Hong Kong stands uniquely positioned at the epicenter of this transformation. As Asia’s premier financial hub embracing progressive Web3 regulations and home to some of the world’s most sophisticated AI-driven investment strategies, the city offers an unparalleled vantage point to witness and participate in this financial revolution.

This exclusive half-day symposium convenes leading institutional allocators managing billions in digital assets, AI innovators redefining research workflows, and infrastructure experts driving the practical adoption of stablecoins and RWA tokenization. Participants will gain exclusive insights into how institutional-grade frameworks for digital asset allocation are evolving alongside the regulatory landscape and technological innovations.

Whether you're seeking to understand how sovereign wealth funds are being allocated to digital assets, how quantitative firms are leveraging generative AI for alpha generation, or how tokenization is unlocking liquidity in previously illiquid markets, this symposium delivers the insights you need to stay competitive.

The future of finance is being written today. Join us to ensure you're not just observing this transformation but actively participating in it!

In an era defined by shifting power balances and geopolitical fragmentation, global trade and investment flows are facing unprecedented disruption. The prolonged U.S.–China trade tensions, supply chain reconfigurations, and rising regional conflicts—such as those in Eastern Euro-Asia and the Middle East—have significantly challenged the multilateral order that once anchored international economic cooperation.

Within this complex landscape, Hong Kong stands at a critical intersection. Positioned between East and West, and backed by world-class infrastructure and legal reliability, the city remains a vital access point for Swiss–Sino trade, European capital seeking Asian exposure, and Asian families seeking restructured outbound partnerships. For Switzerland—renowned for precision industries, sustainable innovation, and family enterprise—Hong Kong continues to serve as a trusted platform to engage the Greater Bay Area and the wider Asian economy.

The St. Gallen Symposium Hong Kong–GBA Forum 2025 returns this September as a flagship Swiss-Sino dialogue on regional leadership, technology industry insights, and cross-border trade, capital investment and innovation, hosted by the St. Gallen Symposium Alumni Hong Kong Chapter, with the support by Invest Hong Kong, The UBS Group and Consulate General of Switzerland in Hong Kong SAR and Macau. The Forum this year sets out to examine these realities under the theme: “Shifting Global Clout: Hong Kong’s Role in a Changing World.”
