As one of the core sub-forums of the Hong Kong Web3 Carnival, the "Four-Dimensional Resonance: New Global Financial Infrastructure in 2026" forum was successfully held today at the OpenStage of the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre. The forum was co-hosted by Web3Labs and German company Singularity Technology, with Bitroot, Injective, Microsoft, and Z Oracle as co-organizers, and received strong support from Stoneii, ENI Network, MagnetX, Picwe, AI Mall, and NeuroLabs. The event brought together heavyweight guests from the political, industrial, and investment sectors, focusing on four core areas: RWA (Real-World Assets), AI (Artificial Intelligence), DeFi (Decentralized Finance), and compliant payments, to jointly explore the integration, innovation, and implementation paths of global financial infrastructure.
Policy Guidance: Cross-border Collaboration to Build an Inclusive Innovation Environment
The forum featured speeches from three invited guests: Wu Jiezhuang, a member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference and Chairman of the Legislative Council's Committee on Business, Innovation and Technology of Hong Kong; Min Byung-deok, a member of the National Assembly of South Korea; and Yoon Seok-hoon, Chairman of the Asia Economic Development Committee. The three policy guests unanimously emphasized that cross-border regulatory cooperation and policy inclusivity are key to the development of fintech, and called for the establishment of a more open international financial innovation ecosystem to provide institutional guarantees for new financial infrastructure in Asia and globally.
Technology-driven: Outlining a new blueprint for financial infrastructure
In his opening remarks, Web3Labs CEO Caspar pointed out that Hong Kong, as an international financial innovation hub, needs to promote synergy among industry, capital, and policy to accelerate the digital upgrade of financial infrastructure. Chang Shuai, CEO of German-owned Singularity Technology, spoke on the theme of "Consensus, Resonance, and Symbiosis," suggesting that the global financial new infrastructure is ushering in a "singularity moment."
During the keynote speeches, MagnetX Vice President Jerry Yu analyzed the infrastructure construction of the AI Agent economy, pointing out that intelligent agents will become the underlying support for financial operations. Bitroot CEO Juan proposed the "Third Public Chain Revolution of Web3," believing that the evolution of public chain technology will drive financial infrastructure towards a more efficient and trustworthy stage.
