TechFlow news, on November 2, Jeff Ren, Partner at OKX Ventures, was invited to attend the "Hong Kong Fintech Week 2023" event. He participated in a panel discussion on the theme of DeFi innovation and transformation alongside Fabian Astic, Global Head of DeFi and Digital Assets at Moody's Investors Service, and Janine Grainger, CEO of Easy Crypto. The panel was moderated by CoinTelegraph journalist Tom Mitchelhill. During the discussion, Jeff Ren stated that from first principles, DeFi leverages smart contract technology on blockchain networks to deliver decentralized, programmable, automated, and transparent financial services—representing a significant innovation that complements and integrates with traditional finance. For example, RWA (real-world asset tokenization), which brings real-world assets on-chain and enables secure ownership transfer, is one of the most compelling use cases.
Notably, OKX is a Diamond Sponsor of "Hong Kong Fintech Week 2023." Organized by Hong Kong's Financial Services and the Treasury Bureau and the Investment Promotion Agency of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region Government, and co-organized by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority, the Securities and Futures Commission, and the Insurance Authority, the event is expected to attract over 30,000 global attendees and 5 million online viewers.
