The wait is almost
over. iFX EXPO Asia 2026 begins tomorrow, 7 October, bringing the global
trading and fintech industry together in Hong Kong. The Welcome Party will open
the event tomorrow evening, followed by two days of exhibition, conference
sessions and business networking at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition
Centre on 8–9 October.
With 5,000+ attendees
from 130+ countries, 150+ exhibitors and 120+ speakers expected, the event will
bring together professionals from across online trading, fintech and financial
services.
The week has already
started on a strong note, with the iFX EXPO Asia Hackathon bringing developers,
innovators and industry professionals together ahead of the main event. The
Hackathon sets the tone for a week focused on collaboration, innovation and new
opportunities across the financial technology ecosystem.
Brokers, banks,
payments companies, technology providers, liquidity providers and digital asset
businesses are heading to Hong Kong to meet new contacts, explore opportunities
and discuss what comes next for the industry. For those still deciding whether
to attend, registration remains open.
Tomorrow, the
conversations begin
The first connections
will happen before the exhibition floor even opens.
The Welcome Party on 7
October gives attendees the opportunity to reconnect with industry peers, meet
new contacts and get the event underway in a more relaxed setting. For those
arriving with meetings already scheduled, it is a chance to connect ahead of
two busy days. For first-time visitors, it offers an early introduction to the
iFX EXPO Asia community.
From 8 October, the
focus moves to the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, where companies
from across the industry will showcase their latest products, services and
solutions.
Meet the people
behind the business
ZFX, M4Markets,
INFINOX, EBC Financial Group, Syphonix and B2Broker are among the featured
exhibitors taking part in this year’s event.
For attendees, the
exhibition floor provides an opportunity to take conversations beyond emails
and introductory calls. Meet the teams behind the solutions you are
considering, compare providers, explore new technologies or discover companies
that were not previously on your radar.
And with thousands of
professionals from across the financial industry under one roof, some of the
most valuable opportunities may happen outside the scheduled agenda — through a
meeting between sessions, an introduction on the expo floor or a conversation
that leads to the next partnership.
Big questions,
experienced voices
The conference
programme brings together senior industry figures including Wei Zhou, CEO of
Coins.ph; Rachel Qiu, Head of Business Development and Chief Operating Officer
at HashKey; and Emil Chan, Co-Chair of the Hong Kong Digital Finance
Association.
They will be joined by
Prof. Andy Chun, Professor of Practice at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University,
and Tim Ferland, Group CEO of LetKnow, among other industry leaders.
Across the Speaker
Hall and Mastery Hub, sessions will explore some of the developments shaping
the financial industry, including AI, stablecoins, tokenisation, prediction
markets and trading technology, alongside opportunities for growth across APAC.
Attendees can hear
directly from professionals working across these areas, take insights from the
conference into their own businesses and continue the conversation on the
exhibition floor.
