CEO of Blue speaks at the Hong Kong Fintech Week 2019

As the first digital life insurer in Hong Kong, Blue was invited to participate in the Hong Kong FinTech Week 2019 to advocate and propel the FinTech development in Hong Kong. Charles Hung, CEO and Executive Director of Blue, joined a panel of global FinTech leaders to discuss the topic of “Digital-Only Insurance” at the main conference.

The panel discussion started off with the question on “Why digital insurance?” Charles stated, “Digital insurance can bridge the gap by bringing simple, flexible and valuable solutions, empowering customers to take full charge of their own protection needs.”

Charles added, “You are not a digital insurer if you just put insurance online; you need to address market pain points in a meaningful way to be a true digital life insurer.”

The Hong Kong FinTech Week 2019 showcased a variety of programmes, business events, and exhibitors and covers a broad range of FinTech topics, including Insurtech, Artificial Intelligence, Blockchain, Virtual Banking and more. The event attracted over 10,000 attendees from around the globe and has been the largest FinTech event of its kind in Hong Kong.
