Exploring next ventures with China

Hong Kong's remarkable achievements in 2024 underscore its unwavering position as a global business hub and a catalyst for innovation and economic growth. Ranking 4th globally in FDI attraction, along with its continued dominance as Asia's #1 financial center, is a testament to the resilience and strategic positioning of Hong Kong in the global market. The +10% growth in startups, powered by initiatives like StartmeupHK and Cyberport, is a clear reflection of the city’s dynamic entrepreneurial ecosystem, fostering innovation and attracting global talent. Additionally, the increase in foreign-owned companies and the growth of regional headquarters signal a flourishing environment for international businesses to expand and capitalize on Hong Kong’s unique advantages, from its proximity to Mainland China to its robust financial infrastructure. Looking ahead to 2025, Hong Kong is poised to continue its ascent, offering unmatched opportunities for businesses looking to tap into the vast potential of the Asian market. The diverse industries thriving in Hong Kong—coupled with its forward-thinking policies and support for entrepreneurs—create an ideal environment for companies seeking to establish a foothold in Asia. As businesses worldwide look for strategic entry points into the Asian market, Hong Kong remains a prime destination due to its unparalleled infrastructure, business-friendly environment, and strong governmental support. I look forward to seeing the continued success stories emerging from Hong Kong and to exploring how future ventures can benefit from this dynamic market. #FDI #HongKong #BusinessExpansion #GlobalGrowth #Entrepreneurship #Innovation #Asia #Startups #FinancialCenter

Accelerating new technology and business models is a team sport It was a true pleasure to exchange thoughts at Deutsche Bank‘s 27th Family Office Symposium at the Städel Museum in Frankfurt. And it was an equal pleasure to do this with my great fellows Christian Mohr from UnternehmerTUM and Peer Paulsen from our Wealth Management team. We exchanged thoughts on… 💡How UnternehmerTUM solves the gap between great, innovative university idea to commercialization of the same and by that became Germany’s largest VC investor; 💡How this model will be rolled out all over Germany as part of the Startup Factory Initiative; 💡How important it is to close the gap of scale capital to accelerate European industrial innovators and the European Transformation; and 💡How this will require banks, institutional and private investors to partner; with the state to set the right adjustments to improve competitiveness and selectively support where there is no sufficient private market yet. It’s about nothing less than our European economic next generation. It‘s crucial to get this right. It’s a team effort to get this right. Thanks for the invite Claudio, Stefanie Rühl-Hoffmann, CFA and Frank Schriever. Was a great pleasure! #FinanceTheFuture #FamilyOffice #VentureCapital #Transformation #Financing Deutsche Bank Corporate Bank Deutsche Bank Unternehmensbank

🌍 Swiss Innovation at the Singapore FinTech Festival 🇨🇭✨ As startups, we are given a platform to shine – but success requires proactive engagement and hard work.
