OPEN SPACE 2021

They used to say that Cash is King, but now digital currency is. It’s now in every area of our lives from e-payment apps to online purchases. The world is moving to a cashless society, but is there an even greater development potential for digital cash on the horizon and how might it impact our lives?

During the keynote talk at the School’s Open Day this year, Dr King Au, Executive Director of the Financial Services Development Council (FSDC) and Mr Emil Chan, Chairman of the FinTech Committee of the Smart City Consortium (SCC), will share their insights on how digital currency and FinTech have changed and are continuing to change today’s business models, and the opportunities and challenges associated with innovative payment methods. 

Another upcoming keynote talk "Stories from the Book of DNA" will be hosted by Professor Danny Chan, S Y and H Y Cheng Professor in Stem Cell Biology and Regenerative Medicine, The University of Hong Kong and will focus on DNA and health - another hot topic in these viral times.

Altogether, there will be 30 talks covering topics as varied as market trends, the professions, wellness & health, languages, and culture. It's time to enjoy gaining knowledge without leaving home!
