Description
In this next episode of our series, “Crypto leadership & talent: Evolution of control functions,” part of The Heidrick & Struggles Leadership Podcast, Heidrick & Struggles’ William Bown and David Hui speak to King Leung, head of financial services and fintech and cohead of carbon neutrality at InvestHK, a department of the Hong Kong SAR government responsible for foreign direct investment that attracts and supports overseas enterprises and investors to expand and scale their business in Hong Kong. Leung shares his first exposure to the crypto and digital assets sector and what drew him to this space, and then discusses Hong Kong's relationship with the crypto industry: how that relationship is evolving, how Hong Kong is trying to find the right balance between stability and allowing innovation to thrive, how the industry can both attract and develop talent, and what kinds of digital asset organization are looking to come to Hong Kong. He also offers some insight into where Hong Kong is in its plans to develop central bank digital currencies (CBDC) and what specific skill sets and capabilities will be most important for future leaders in this space to help their organizations meet their strategic goals.
