- Confirmed attendees include big family offices from Hong Kong, mainland China, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, as well as the Americas, source says
The forum, called “The Wealth for Good in Hong Kong Summit”, will be held at the Hong Kong Palace Museum in West Kowloon Cultural District on March 24. At least 14 tycoons and chiefs of the world’s leading family offices and organisations – including the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, Swiss bank UBS and Art Basel – have been proposed by the government as speakers at the event, according to a programme seen by the Post. The programme was sent to guests last month and the list of speakers is subject to change, a source said.
“The [forum] showcases Hong Kong’s unique advantages as an international asset and wealth-management hub to global family offices and asset owners,” Lee said. It will build stronger connections with decision makers at global family offices, and assist them in exploring opportunities and implementing their development plans in Hong Kong, thereby encouraging more family offices to establish a presence here, he added.
