#Motivations:
In past two months' time we have been seen massive interest in implementing Stellar for fin tech companies in Hong Kong. The massive interest is not a coincident, there are three main driving forces for this.
1. Hong Kong is a money centre of south Eastern Asia, connecting China to the rest of the world financially. As a result, it is also a centre for cross-boarder payments.
2. Hong Kong government is has been trying to boost fintech companies in 2017 [1,2].
3. The Chinese blockchain companies are starting to flooding into Hong Kong because of the temporary regulation risks.
#Introducing the Meet-up group:
We initiated this meet-up group to hold conferences and enhance communication of people interested in Stellar network. We already have 45 members and the number is increasing everyday [3].
We have full-time marketing manager to organise events and build the network. The goal is to:
1, attract fintech companies to look into this technology and implement it at their backend
2, attract professionals and university students to join the development of stellar based applications.
#Action points in coming month:
1. I will give a talk on tokenisation in the University of Hong Kong on Nov.1 and I can provide video clip on that.
2. We will initiate the first meet up as soon as we settle the location.
#What do we need:
In order for the group to grow massively in the coming six month, we need resources to rent meeting rooms, marketing in different industries and maintaining relationship with interested companies.
