Tech Hub Cyberport Escorts Start-Ups to MyFintech Week Event in Malaysia
In the heart of Kuala Lumpur, during MyFintech Week 2025 (August 4-7), Cyberport, Hong Kong's leading technology incubator, spearheaded a delegation of FinTech start-ups. The mission? To forge cross-border partnerships and strengthen Hong Kong-ASEAN FinTech ties.
