After the tremendously successful WOW Summits that were held in Dubai and Lisbon in 2021 and 2022, the Hong Kong Edition of the WOW Summit will take place.

Retail Digital Marketing Conference 2023
10th May 2023
The concept of “customer experience” is not new to either consumers or brands; it has been around for many years. However, this new era has reengineered it and given it new meaning, which has made the relationship with customers more in-depth than it ever has been before.
How can marketers re-craft customer experiences within the context of a hybrid business model to provide customers with consistent, engaging experiences both online and offline? Which methods involving many media should be used to make the most of the interaction between brands and customers? How can companies best position themselves for success to provide consumers with engaging experiences—even if those encounters are conducted remotely—that win their affection?
Hong Kong Conference for Fintech, AI, and Big Data in Business
June 02-03, 2023
The City University of Hong Kong is going to play host to the conference on the first two days of June in the year 2023. Because of the competitive nature of the conference, there will be no more than ten presentations on the schedule. To enable interactions between researchers who can physically attend the meeting and those who are not, the meeting will be held in a hybrid format over two days. The costs of economy travel and a three-night hotel stay will be covered for international speakers attending the conference by the organizers, who will also reimburse them for their expenses.

GOVirtual Business Expo & Conference 2023

The idea of the Metaverse helps to shape the significance of the VIRTUAL Economy and Community, and it reveals how important it is for businesses to execute strategies that are really “GOVirtual.” The on-demand economy has also transformed the methods by which people do business in the modern world. Numerous sectors, such as banking, retail, education, and healthcare, among others, have been subjected to enormous shifts in recent years.
Businesses are adopting digital transformation to maintain their competitiveness and relevance in their industries. Several other types of technology are currently receiving a lot of attention, including AI engineering, AIoT, Blockchain, Cloud Technology, NFT, and PssS. The development of all of these technologies and breakthroughs will continue to be the primary force behind the future of the corporate sector.
Hong Kong SEO Events: Are They Worth Attending?
For the most part, I’d say…yes.
SEO Hong Kong is a cottage industry that is booming, especially during the COVID crisis in that we are seeing a massive pivot to everything going digital.
Pros Of Attending Conferences
- A fantastic way to network;
- Learn some new skills;
- Get clients, leads, or employment opportunities
Con’s Of Attending Conferences
- There can be a lot of “hot-air”, i.e. BS content;
- Expensive and virtual events just don’t quite cut it.
I occasionally speak at SEO Conferences; the ones I really love are the more growth hacking types of conferences and the slightly more “blackhat” events – but that’s just personal preference.
The Past, Present, And Future Of SEO Conferences In Hong Kong
When COVID hit the streets back in January and February (in earnest) in Europe and ASIA/US then we saw a massive cancellation of all types of conferences and events worldwide, it wasn’t of course just a Hong Kong thing.
What we saw afterward was the merger of online and traditional offline conference structures. this new format for organizing conferences might become the standard until we have a vaccine for COVID-19.
Anyway, the good news for us is that digital marketing conferences in 2021 in Hong Kong are (just) back and that is good news for several reasons.
Hong Kong is a small city and is even smaller in industry niches such as digital marketing and SEO – so – all the more reason to get stuck into events.
SEO events in Hong Kong are back with several previous digital marketing conferences that have been organized in Hong Kong over the years.
I have created a resource that lifts upcoming Hong Kong SEO events and conferences and I highly recommend that you attend at least one or more this year.
I do not have any strict criteria for adding events to the digital marketing events directory that I built except for two things, firstly that the event has SEO and internet marketing content, and that it is physically based in Hong Kong, whether it’s virtual or physical.
Do You Have An Event To Add?
Let me know if you have an event to add to the directory which is free to do so.
