HKU x MetaEra: CryptoFi Forum 2025

On August 27, The University of Hong Kong was thrilled to host the “CryptoFi Forum 2025”. Prof. Hongbin Cai, Dean of HKU Business School, opened the event by emphasising the importance of balancing regulation with growth in the evolving Web 3.0 landscape. He further underscored that Hong Kong’s Web 3.0 strategy should align with national priorities while seizing new opportunities in the global fintech race.

A highlight of the forum was the dynamic exchange between Prof. Chen Lin, Chair of Finance and Vice-President and Pro-Vice-Chancellor of The University of Hong Kong, and Mr. Changpeng Zhao, Founder of Binance. Their discussion sparked vibrant audience engagement as they explored stablecoins, Real-World Asset tokenisation, and the future of exchanges. Mr. Zhao described this moment as a golden opportunity for Hong Kong to take bold steps in advancing crypto finance.

We were also delighted to have Dr. Jack Jianping Kong, Director of Hong Kong Cyberport Management Company Limited and Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Nano Labs, Ms. Jessica Yang, CEO of MetaEra, Dr. Ming Li, the Executive Chairman of the Hong Kong Web 3.0 Standardization Association, along with other speakers sharing their views on Web 3.0 development.

Thank you to all our esteemed speakers!

美國的技術封鎖加速中國企業創新向科學驅動轉型
在正常情況下,企業可以通過購買設備和軟件、獲得技術許可、開展聯合研發以及參與全球供應鏈等多種方式獲取外部技術和知識。但當這些渠道受到限制時,企業將如何調整創新戰略?公開發表的科學知識是否會變得更加重要? 深圳大學王君涵、清華大學李習保和香港大學王硯波合作開展的研究 “Geopolitical Tensions with the US Accelerate Chinese Firms’ Leveraging of Science”,圍繞這一問題考察了美國實體清單相關技術限制對中國企業科學活動的影響。研究發現,在中國企業本身日益加強與科學研究聯繫的背景下,外部技術限制進一步加快了企業創新向科學驅動方向轉型。
