InvestHK, a prominent government department in Hong Kong promoting overseas investments, is joining forces with FinTech Alliance Philippines to host the Manila Tech Summit on August 6 to 7, 2024, at the Manila Marriott Grand Ballroom.

Themed “AI Unlocked: Shaping Our Digital Future,” the summit promises to be a premier event for tech and finance professionals across the region.

FinTech Alliance PH is the Philippines’ largest digital industry association, encompassing over 100 companies that collectively generate more than 95 percent of the nation’s digitally-enabled retail financial transaction volume.

King Leung, InvestHK’s global head for financial services, will deliver a keynote address focusing on “Creating an AI-Ready Investment Hub.” His insights are expected to shed light on how Hong Kong and the Philippines can collaborate to drive AI advancements and investment.

Lito Villanueva, founding chairman of FinTech Alliance Philippines, expressed enthusiasm about the collaboration.

“Our partnership with InvestHK has been steady and dynamic since 2022. This alliance furthers our mission to promote mutual cooperation and the exchange of global best practices,” said Villanueva.

Adding to their collaborative efforts, FinTech Alliance PH has been invited by the Philippine Consulate General’s office in Hong Kong to set up the Philippine pavilion at Hong Kong Tech Week, scheduled for October.

This initiative showcases the alliance’s commitment to fostering international relationships and bridging the technological gap between the two regions.
