The Asia Private Equity Forum (APEF) 2024, organized by the Hong Kong Venture Capital and Private Equity Association (HKVCA), was a notable success.

The 14th annual edition of the Forum featured some 70 LPs, GPs and other industry professionals, including program leaders, speakers and sponsors. Leading industry practitioners addressed the latest trends driving private markets in Asia, particularly in China, Japan, Korea, India and Southeast Asia, and covered topics relevant to private equity, venture capital, real estate, private credit, investor sentiment and regulation.

Held at the Hong Kong Convention and Exhibition Centre, the event featured an array of distinguished guests, including: the Honourable Paul Mo-po Chan, GBM, GBS, MH, JP, Financial Secretary of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region (HKSAR); Samson Wong, Chief Investment Officer (Private Markets), Hong Kong Monetary Authority; Ming Lu, Executive Chairman, Asia Pacific, KKR; Eric Mason, Managing Director, The Church Pension Fund; and Kent Chen, Managing Director, Neuberger Berman Asia.

APEF’s robust attendance demonstrated Asia’s enduring appeal as a prime destination for global investors, and underscored Hong Kong’s strategic preeminence as the gateway to the region’s abundant opportunities.”
