TOPIC: Creating a Sustainable and Inclusive Future

The AFF has gone from strength to strength since its inception, with the most recent edition attracting more than 3,000 global leaders in government, finance and business from 46 countries and regions to gather intelligence, establish connections, and explore business and investment opportunities.

The AFF 2019 will continue to be Asia's premier platform for exchanging ideas and intelligence on facilitating sustainable growth, driving inclusive development as well as harnessing innovation and technologies for the continued advancement of human society. In addition to groundbreaking sessions on global economic outlook and investment prospects, policy trends and Asia's role in steering global growth, a series of InnoTalks will feature themes related to innovation and technology (such as fintech, blockchain, payment technology and artificial intelligence), while there will also be dedicated sessions on other topical issues (such as Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Bay Area, green finance and entrepreneurship). 

In response to increasing interest amongst industry players on innovative technologies and their impact on the economy as a whole, the FinTech Showcase will be launched for financial institutions and and technology companies to introduce their latest financial technology solutions and cutting-edge innovations. In addition, the Global Investment Zone (showcasing worldwide investment agencies) and the AFF Deal Flow Matchmaking Session (featuring matching meetings between sources of funds and sources of deals) will continue to spotlight business and investment opportunities from around the world. Entrepreneurs and new businesses will also showcase their ideas and capabilities to worldwide investors and partners at the InnoVenture Salon through project demos and presentations, investor meetups and mentoring sessions on project commercialisation and fund raising.
