Patience sounds like the exact opposite of speed. But in deep tech, it is precisely patience that makes speed possible. Jin Zhong, Chief Risk Officer of a Hong Kong investment company, explained how long-term capital accelerates innovation: it allows founders to focus on building, brings breakthrough results from the lab to market, and provides sustained long-term funding support behind the scenes. From 15:05 to 15:30 local time on November 11, Hao Qian will discuss with Kim Chong, Chief Risk Officer of Hong Kong Investment Corporation Limited (HKIC), how patient capital accelerates innovation and technological development.

From 16:25 to 16:45 on November 12, Hao Qian will also discuss "The AI Engine Behind Global Travel" with Michael Esquibel, CTO of American Express GBT. When global platforms process transactions around the clock, system downtime is unacceptable. In this session, Michael Esquibel will explain how artificial intelligence and intelligent automation help enterprises achieve continuous online service assurance. In a world of surging demand and frequent disruptions, understanding how AI-based processes can effectively avoid service interruptions and ensure travelers reach their destinations smoothly.
