About
Join CAT Investigators and Finoverse for an exclusive cocktail evening during Hong Kong FinTech Week x StartmeupHK 2026 to tackle a pressing industry challenge: digital asset investigations that stall. While tracing the blockchain trail is rarely the issue, cases often break down in the aftermath due to unclear fund ownership, fragmented intelligence, and slow cross-border escalation. Over drinks, short keynotes, and a practitioner-led panel, we will explore why tracing is not the same as attribution and how institutions can accelerate the move from suspicion to evidence. You will leave with practical takeaways from senior leaders across the FSI, regulatory, and consulting sectors, guaranteeing an evening of real conversation in an intimate setting. Event Date: Tuesday 3rd of November Event Time: 17:00 - 20:00 Location: Soho House, Hong Kong Panel Discussion: Anna Gates from AlixPartners and former Head of Compliance, APAC at Galaxy Ying Yi Liew, Head of the Financial Services Regulatory Practice at CMS Holborn and Co-Chair of the Digital Assets Subcommittee at the Blockchain Association of Singapore Brent Sellors, Associate Director of Financial Crimes Advisory and Forensic Services at PwC Hong Kong Jonathan Gropper, founder of The Synthetic Outlaw and former Fulbright Scholar Devon J. Euring (moderator), Senior Advisor and Partner at CAT Investigators and former Head of Risk and Operations at iHeartRadio.
