    International Art Movements Presented in a Bold New Way

    The “Pop It!” gallery, inspired by the Neo-Pop movement, is an installation delightfully decorated with reflective bubble shapes in different sizes. A jelly balloon dog confection is retrieved from a giant claw machine that dominates the space. “Roll With It”, inspired by Modernism, features colour block light boxes and panels. An attendant serves guests with a colourful piece of savoury and sweet edible ribbon – available in an assortment of block colours.

    Expressionism is the inspiration for “Drip”, featuring floor and walls decorated in the expressionist style and a drink experience offering flavoured drinks through coloured tubes, which are served to visitors. “Go Bananas!” represents the Conceptual Art movement through a playful display of replica fruits taped to the wall. Extending the sensory journey, a delicious miniature edible banana taped to a board is offered for visitors to take.

    The Surrealism movement is represented in “Feast Your Eyes”, with a fully laid table inside a veil of curtains. Visitors put their heads behind the veil to discover the vivid setting. A tin of edible pearls offers an unexpected Dali-esque element of surprise. “Blue-tiful” is an optical illusion focused on perspective that highlights Optical Illusion Artand plays with the shape of an egg to form a perfect round shape within an immersive, blue-lit backdrop. In this gallery, visitor will receive an ‘Op-art egg’, an egg-shaped puff pastry filled with egg custard, presented in a classic egg carton, extending the Optical Illusion Art experience into a perfect multi-sensory indulgence.

    The Impressionism movement is showcased in “Bloomin’ Marvellous”, an installation in two parts. First, a garden of giant flowers followed by a floral animation gallery with bean bags. ‘Focaccia flowers’ are blooming throughout the gallery, each delicate paper blossom cradling a piece of focaccia at its centre, filling the space with the rich aroma of olive oil and rosemary that entices every visitor to take a bite. A study in Spatialism is presented in “Cabinet of Curiosities”, where guests are invited to pick a ball from a colourful central display before opening a matching cabinet. Inside, a chocolate bonbon awaits – igniting the taste buds in a sweet cocoon.

    Money20/20 Asia 2026 Unveils Transformative Agenda and Stellar Keynote Lineup

    From Infrastructure to Impact – Where Technology Meets Humanity

    BANGKOK, THAILAND – Media OutReach Newswire – 29 January 2026 – Money20/20, the world’s leading fintech show, and the place where money does business, today revealed its agenda for Money20/20 Asia, set for 21–23 April 2026 at the Queen Sirikit National Convention Center in Bangkok. Asia’s most influential fintech event will bring together thousands of leaders, innovators, regulators, and investors from across the region and around the world to explore how financial technology can deliver real human impact – not just technical innovation.

    Money20/20

    Under the theme “From Infrastructure to Impact – Where Technology Meets Humanity,” the agenda reflects the industry’s evolution from celebrating capability to driving measurable outcomes that matter to people and communities. The program will spotlight key priorities including intelligent infrastructure for inclusive systems, SME empowerment, hyper-local ecosystem orchestration across diverse markets, last-mile solutions for underserved users, and the convergence of traditional and decentralized finance.

    The keynote roster features top voices shaping the future of finance across Asia and beyond, including Peng Ooi Goh, Founder & Executive Chairman of Silverlake Group; Sridhar Narayanan, Distinguished Engineer & CTO, IBM Payments Center; Kelvin Tan, CEO of audax Singapore; Fozia Amanulla, CEO of Boost Bank Malaysia; Rob Schimek, Group CEO of Bolttech; Anu Phanse, Chief Compliance Officer at Coinbase Singapore; Raymond Ng, CEO for Singapore & SEA at Revolut; and Rahul Advani, Global Co-Head of Policy at Ripple — along with an expanding roster of sector leaders across banking, fintech, and technology.

    “Money20/20 Asia 2026 is a defining moment for our industry,” said Danny Levy, EVP & MD, APAC & Middle East. “This year’s agenda has been designed not just to showcase what technology can do, but to deepen conversations about what technology should do — solve real challenges, unlock economic potential for small businesses, and ensure inclusive access for communities across Asia. We’re thrilled to bring together a lineup of visionary leaders who share that commitment.”

    Anna Liu, Chief Executive Officer of HashKey Tokenisation, says, “Tokenisation is quickly moving from concept to real‑world use across Asia. Industries today are leveraging cutting edge technology to unlock liquidity and value through secure, compliant frameworks. HashKey is building the foundational infrastructure that makes it possible, and I’m looking forward to joining Money20/20 Asia to drive this shift from experimentation to real impact.”

    Across three days of keynotes, panels, and interactive sessions, attendees will explore the critical trends shaping the future of money — from payments, banking, and digital assets to AI, regulatory innovation, and human-centered design — all with a focus on turning ideas into impact.

  • 社聯首次公布香港善行營商實踐數據 3500間善行企業獲嘉許 在職照顧者支援成友善職場新指標

    社聯首次公布香港善行營商實踐數據 3500間善行企業獲嘉許 在職照顧者支援成友善職場新指標

    香港社會服務聯會(社聯)今日假香港會議展覽中心舉行2024/25「商界展關懷」計劃嘉許禮,邀得香港特別行政區政府勞工及褔利局局長孫玉菡先生,JP擔任主禮嘉賓,今年共有3,500間善行企業及機構獲得嘉許。

    社聯首度發布《善行營商實踐數據》,透過伙伴合作、社會、經濟及環境可持續發展四大範疇,深入分析本港企業在應對人口高齡化、勞動力挑戰及氣候變化等社會議題上的實踐趨勢。

    勞工及褔利局局長孫玉菡先生,JP恭賀獲「商界展關懷」計劃嘉許的企業和機構。他表示,要建構關懷社會,政府和非政府組織難以獨力完成,商界亦是很重要的力量和夥伴。作為僱主,照顧好自己的員工,除了能夠幫助員工家庭,也有利於企業發展,吸引優秀人才,互惠共贏。他期待商界能夠更積極參與計劃,建構一個更關愛的社會。

    二十四年深耕商社合作:28%夥伴關係長達10年或以上

    「商界展關懷」計劃至今已推行 24 年。社聯主席管浩鳴法政牧師,SBS,JP致辭時表示:「今年計劃進行了重大革新,將國際可持續發展框架本地化。透過首份實踐數據分析,我們得以觀察商界在應對人口高齡化、勞動力挑戰及氣候變化等挑戰時的整體表現,期望未來能透過這些實踐趨勢,引領企業將關懷文化轉化為具體的商業決策。」

    數據顯示,商社合作已建立深厚根基,超過七成企業與社區伙伴的合作關係達 3 年或以上,更有 28% 合作長達 10 年或以上,反映出跨界別協作追求長遠穩定的夥伴關係。

    職場新戰場:在職照顧者支援成關鍵 「添孫假」成創意亮點

    企業在照顧者支援上的表現成為焦點。數據顯示,超過八成企業已普及彈性工作安排;而今年有 104 間企業因其出色的支援措施而獲得「照顧者友善」特別嘉許。社聯行政總裁陳文宜議員觀察到不少創新案例:「已經有企業推行 8 星期全薪領養假、5 日獨生子女照顧假,甚至『添孫假』。此外,也有企業提供長者陪診支援。支援照顧者不一定要大灑金錢,只要從員工需要出發,善行營商有無限可能。」

    社聯五大善行營商建議:轉化「隨手做」為「政策化」

    企業在慈善捐贈與行動力上表現出色,但在環境數據追蹤(僅約30%)及職場多元化方面仍有進步空間。為此,社聯提出五大重點建議:

    • 深化善行標準:將「商界展關懷」計劃指標視為營運基準,建立系統化的善行營商模式。
    • 推動專業共享與責任採購:鼓勵企業管理層義務加入社會服務機構董事會,提供專業支援,並將社會服務機構產品納入採購供應鏈。
    • 構建多元共融職場:積極聘用弱勢社群以開拓新人才庫,並落實彈性工作支援在職照顧者。
    • 持續投入人才培育:視人才為經濟增長動力,加強員工培訓,特別是精神健康支援。
    • 啟動數據化管理:建議企業即時開展與可持續發展相關表現的數據追蹤,確保各項善行具備可衡量性與持續性。

    「商界展關懷」計劃於2024/25年度共收到逾 4,300 份的標誌申請,最終 3,500 間企業及機構分別獲得「商界展關懷」標誌及「同心展關懷」標誌嘉許,當中包括大企業(42%)及中小企(51%)及機構(7%)。社聯強調,數據發布旨在建立長效機制,引領商界尋找「做得更好」的空間,透過協作應對未來社會挑戰。
