RISE Hong Kong: A Great Meeting of Minds
Christopher KL Lau
Some of the greatest concepts and ideas that come to life have usually originated from the most simplistic of ideas.
Innovation does not have to be complex and people meeting and discussing can bring life to even the most impossible of dreams.
The famed RISE conference and series of talks have become a global phenomenon and one of the most eagerly anticipated technology conferences in the world.
Hong Kong has been included as one of the cities to host this mass meeting of the most innovative and creative minds in the world and for the past few years, the best and brightest of the tech industry have flocked to Hong Kong.
The beauty of RISE Hong Kong or any other RISE conference is that a simple idea which can benefit others can become a reality if potential investors like the concepts and ideas raised in a 'pitch' session.
Dreamers can rub shoulders with people like Elon Musk, the tech billionaire, who has appeared at RISE conferences before. The event hall is a mass of synergy and energy of those looking to change the world for the better with their latest app or device!
Over three days, speakers, investors, media and those simply looking for that 'lucky' break can network to their heart's content, create new partnerships or seek advice from those more experienced and in the know in their field.
Due to geographical location, RISE Hong Kong attracts attendees from across the Asia Pacific region and of course, China.
Due to the number of industries represented at RISE, the conference is broken down into many categories and in keeping with the the cutting edge nature of the talks, the different categories have alternative names such as "PandaConf", "Start-Up University", "SaaSMonster", "TalkRobot" and nothing can bring people together than a little socializing which takes the form of the "Pub Summit" and "Night Summit".
Ideas are great, though the execution of an idea is always much more valuable. At RISE Hong Kong, participants in the Asia-Pacific have the opportunity to dream and see how far their ideas can take them.
