HKUST Crypto-Fintech Lab is a pioneering brand in Hong Kong, dedicated to advancing the concept of Web3 and cultivating future-oriented Web3 talents. As the West Point Military Academy of Web3, we prioritize education, aiming to promote the understanding of Web3 throughout society. Our focus lies in exploring the underlying technologies and applications of Web3, including cryptography, blockchain, smart contracts, token economics, DeFi, and the Metaverse.

At the Crypto-Fintech Lab, we are not just an ivory tower. In addition to conducting research on the most advanced technologies, we actively apply them to various projects, driving the development of Web3. Our projects range from a decentralized insurance platform (Degis) and a price reference system for NFTs (Furion) to an under-collateralized borrowing protocol (Prestare) and a Web3 career platform (Talentre).

As an organization firmly rooted in HKUST and backed by industry supporters, we collaborate with leading entrepreneurs, professionals, and investors to host industry dialogues and promote the growth of Web3. Stay updated with our news and blogs to follow our progress. For inquiries, please contact us at the Crypto-Fintech Lab, located in the Department of Mathematics at HKUST.
