FinTech Belgium Media Podcast - DFS25 - InvestHK Brussels

In this episode, Koen is joined by Paula Kant and Fernando de la Cal González from InvestHK Brussels to unpack why Hong Kong is emerging as a high-precision launchpad for European fintechs looking to scale into Asia and how the city’s dense financial ecosystem, global capital access and pragmatic, domain-based regulation create fast, testable paths to market.

The discussion breaks down the key differences between scaling in the EU versus operating in Hong Kong, from focused licensing and common-law familiarity to follow-the-customer entry strategies that deliver early wins while spotlighting high-opportunity sectors including payments, crypto, e-commerce, and insurtech, along with accelerators, investor access, and Science Park links into the Greater Bay Area. 

Through real-world case studies such as DPAM Asset Management, Fineos and CurrencyFair, this episode offers founders practical tactics they can model today - plus a clear view on near-term trends and how to engage directly with Invest Hong Kong.
