Hong Kong is one of the largest financial centers in Asia and a leading global hub for technology innovation. In this international and open environment, an increasing number of innovators and entrepreneurs are flocking to Hong Kong to explore new business models and technological applications. The emergence of Web3 has brought about new opportunities and challenges for these entrepreneurs.
The Successful May 15th "2023 Hong Kong Web3.0 Summit"
On May 15, 2023, the "2023 Hong Kong Web3.0 Summit" with the theme "Web2.0 to Web3.0, World to Hong Kong" was successfully held at the HKPC Building, 78 Tat Chee Avenue, Kowloon Tong, Hong Kong.
