Our managing partner joined a panel on AI talent at the Hong Kong FinTech Week 2025

On the opening day of Hong Kong FinTech Week 2025, our managing partner Jochen Biedermann took part in an insightful panel hosted by the Financial Services Development Council (FSDC) on "AI & Finance: Redefining Talent in the Digital Age – Skills, Ethics, and the Future Workforce."

Among the panelists were Joseph HL Chan, Under Secretary for Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau (FSTB), Alvin Kwock, Co-Founder & CEO of AIFT, and Neil Tan, Founder & Chairman of the Artificial Intelligence Association of Hong Kong (AIHK). Aveline San, CEO & Banking Head of Citi Hong Kong and Macau, moderated the discussion on how AI is transforming financial centers, workforce dynamics, and ethical frameworks across the industry.

The dialogue underscored key themes shaping the financial ecosystem of tomorrow:

• Building Responsible and Trustworthy AI frameworks in finance
• Leveraging global and multilingual talent to lead in the AI era
• Ensuring human-centered collaboration, where ethics and judgment remain at the core of innovation

As highlighted during the session, AI's transformative potential must go hand in hand with ethics, trust, and inclusion.
