Hong Kong’s InvestHK Boosts Web3 and Fintech Cooperation with Japan

Invest Hong Kong (InvestHK) has concluded a five-day mission to Japan, reinforcing ties in Web3 and fintech sectors while promoting bilateral investment. Led by Pauline Fan, the delegation included 16 Hong Kong-based companies, universities, and a family office. Meetings in Osaka and Kyoto featured Japanese partners such as HashPort, SBI, and Plug and Play Japan.

The initiative coincided with IVS 2025, Japan’s largest startup event, and aligned with Hong Kong’s new digital asset policy. Highlighted success stories included Japanese ticketing firm Zaiko, fintech startup Waffo, and Hong Kong’s Goldian Group—all expanding operations across both markets. The mission reflects Hong Kong’s growing role as a fintech and digital asset hub, with increasing collaboration between regional innovation ecosystems.
