On July 1, 2020, the HKU FinTech Student Association (FTSA) was established by a team of BASc(FinTech) students from the inaugural cohort of 2019-2023, after months of idea formulation and hard work. The FTSA aims to be a professional FinTech student body in HKU, which provides a platform to all HKU FinTech enthusiasts, regardless of years and majors to explore, connect, discuss and collaborate with each other in the FinTech ecosystem. Proudly affiliated with The University of Hong Kong – Standard Chartered Hong Kong 150th Anniversary Community Foundation FinTech Academy (HKU-SCF FinTech Academy), with support from HKU BASc(FinTech), Computer Science Department, Faculty of Engineering and iDendron, HKU. The Academy, CS Department, iDendron and FTSA will work hand in hand to enhance the coordination among the Academy and HKU students, and execute a series of academic and industrial professional events – from talent development, R&D effort, to industry and community engagement. All of these efforts are for a similar goal – to nurture talents of HKU students in shaping the FinTech industry across the region, and strengthen Hong Kong’s position as a global financial hub.
