I am truly honored to have been invited as a guest speaker at the conference and attend the *IFF Sci-Tech Finance Committee* opening ceremony, co-hosted by the *International Finance Forum (IFF)* on April 13 in Wuhan.
During the event, I had the opportunity to share my insights and perspectives on the integration of *Hong Kong and Wuhan* in sci-tech finance and their future development.
This conference marked the official launch of the *IFF Sci-Tech Finance Committee! The committee is dedicated to fostering deep integration between finance and technological innovation, advancing the growth of sci-tech finance, and addressing key challenges within the industry. With strong support from the **Wuhan Institute of Industrial Innovation and Development*, the committee aims to establish a dynamic platform that brings together government, industry, and academia to drive sustainable innovation and breakthroughs.
The event successfully concluded on Sunday, and I want to express my gratitude to the organizers for their thoughtful arrangements and to all participants for their enthusiastic engagement and support, making this gathering a huge success! Moving forward, we look forward to collaborating with more partners to promote innovation, create value for the industry, and contribute to the long-term development of global sci-tech finance.
