I will be giving a presentation on listing opportunities for European companies at the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong on 3 November.

The European Chamber of Commerce in Hong Kong in conjunction with EU Business Information Programme and Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited will host a conference on the listing of European companies in Hong Kong. Following the flagship cases of the listings of PRADA and L’Occitane in Hong Kong, an ever-growing number of large European MNCs are looking at a potential listing in Hong Kong for their expansion and business development in Greater China and Asia.

HKEx’s unparalleled liquidity, diversified investor base and increasing capital from Mainland China are consolidating Hong Kong’s leading position as Asia’s Premier Financial Center.

In this comprehensive conference, experts will elaborate on the rationale for a Hong Kong listing. The audience will obtain a full assessment on the type of corporations that could benefit from being listed in Hong Kong and a full overview of the challenges those corporations will encounter throughout the process.

Speakers and guests will include:

Charles Li- Chief Executive of the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited

Eric Landheer – Senior VP & Head of Issuer Marketing of the Hong Kong Exchanges and Clearing Limited

Philippe Espinasse – Author of “IPO: A Global Guide” and consultant

Esther Chan – Managing Director of Strategic Public Relations Group
