Wizpresso 濃說 is proud to collaborate with The Hong Kong Chartered Governance Institute (HKCGI) on a new white paper, “Bridging Innovation and Oversight: Five Governance Priorities – The State of AI Adoption and Governance amongst Hong Kong‑listed companies.”

Drawing on the latest annual and ESG disclosures of more than 2,500 HKEX‑listed issuers, the study provides one of the most comprehensive benchmarks to date of how AI is being adopted and governed across Hong Kong’s listed market. It finds that while almost nine in ten issuers now reference AI in their disclosures, only a minority disclose structured AI governance frameworks, highlighting a widening gap between AI ambition and true AI readiness.

𝐊𝐞𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐠𝐡𝐭𝐬:
🚀 AI has rapidly entered mainstream corporate reporting, but governance, risk, and measurement practices have not kept pace.

📈 Large‑cap and digitally intensive sectors (such as financials, telecommunications, and technology) are leading the way, while many smaller and traditional‑sector issuers remain at a foundational stage.

💡 Five governance priorities emerge for HKEX‑listed companies: visibility over AI use, clear senior accountability, integration of AI risks into existing frameworks, preservation of meaningful human oversight, and balanced, evidence‑based AI disclosures.

At Wizpresso, we support boards, company secretaries, and governance professionals as they turn AI ambition into strong oversight, resilient controls, and transparent reporting.

We would like to thank HKCGI Tom CHAU Mohan Datwani for their leadership and partnership in advancing AI governance in Hong Kong and for building on their earlier “Responsible AI Policy Development – A Governance Playbook” with this market‑wide assessment.

Wizpresso 濃說 was honoured to be featured at CUHK Business School’s Corporate Innovation Index (CII) 3.0 Executive Seminar, “From Insight to Impact – Best Practices & The Way Forward,” on 1 April 2026.

Our founder and CEO, Calvin Cheng, joined the panel “The Digital Frontier: A Dialogue on AI & Corporate Venturing” to share how AI is reshaping corporate innovation, and why responsible AI governance is now a strategic imperative—not just a compliance checkbox.

As more than 80% of companies begin adopting AI across their operations, we discussed:
🔔 Emerging regulatory headwinds around AI governance, data protection and privacy
💡 How to embed explainability, auditability and human‑in‑the‑loop controls into AI workflows
🚀 Startup best practices for rapid iteration of new AI products and use cases, while staying aligned with regulatory expectations

At Wizpresso, we build RegTech and AI solutions that help listed companies and financial institutions innovate quickly, without compromising on trust, transparency, and compliance. The CII 3.0 platform can help advance this dialogue across Hong Kong’s corporate community.

Huge thanks to CUHK Business School and the Asia-Pacific Institute of Business for hosting, to Professor Dominic Chan for expertly moderating a thoughtful and forward‑looking discussion, and to the organizing committee Dr. Toa CHARM Prof. Waiman Cheung, Prof. CK Chan, Mr. Patrick S Lee, and chairperson Chris Au Young for having us. We look forward to continuing our collaboration with CUHK and CII partners to turn AI insights into real impact for enterprises across the region.

🔍 AI Governance in Practice: How Enterprises Can Adapt

As AI becomes embedded in every part of business operations, governance frameworks are struggling to keep up.

Wizpresso’s recent analysis shows that nearly 9 in 10 issuers now reference AI in their annual or ESG reports — yet fewer than 20% of HKEX-listed companies disclose a structured AI governance framework with defined oversight roles and controls.

To explore this transformation, Wizpresso is partnering with Preface to host AI Governance in Practice — an interactive session unpacking how organizations can align governance models with the realities of AI adoption.

Hong Kong’s IPO engine is firmly back in high gear – but the latest SFC findings are a wake‑up call for everyone involved in listings.

In 2025, Hong Kong reclaimed the top global IPO spot 📈 , raising about HK$272.1 billion across 100 listings – a 210% jump in funds raised versus 2024 and the strongest year since 2022.

The pipeline is even more intense: active IPO applications hit a record 316 by early December 2025, signalling continued momentum into 2026.

At the same time, the SFC has highlighted “serious deficiencies ❌ ” in recent IPO applications – suspending vetting on 16 listings and instructing 13 sponsors to review their procedures, staffing, and resource allocation.

The regulator has gone as far as warning that principals handling six or more active deals may be seen as over‑committed, with potential restrictions on business scope if quality doesn’t improve.

This tension is clear: deal volume is soaring, but traditional manual verification workflows have not scaled to keep pace.

When a single prospectus can contain over 10,000 statements and figures, spread across hundreds of pages and multiple languages, relying on spreadsheets and email threads is no longer sustainable.

𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐰𝐡𝐲 𝐰𝐞 𝐛𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐭 𝐖𝐢𝐳𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐨 𝐅𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐟𝐲.

Factify is an AI‑powered IPO verification platform that:

✅ Automatically structures every prospectus into verifiable statements and classifies them into facts and opinions.

✅ Cross‑checks factual disclosures against uploaded supporting documents (financials, contracts, expert reports, regulatory filings) and suggests verification citations.

✅ Generates draft verification notes, recommends review scope and priorities, and centralises all collaboration in an audit‑ready environment.

✅ Supports multilingual, scanned, and image‑based documents so teams can work seamlessly with bilingual and unstructured evidence.

✅ Our goal is simple: help sponsors, issuers, and counsel deliver higher‑quality IPO disclosures in less time, even as volumes rise and regulatory scrutiny intensifies.
If you’re leading or supervising IPO work in this new cycle and want to future‑proof your verification process, I’d be happy to share what we’re seeing in the market and how Factify is helping teams adapt.

Wizpresso 濃說 was honoured to be featured at last Thursday’s BEC Green Fintech Fair, where our founder and CEO Calvin Cheng joined fellow panelists to discuss success stories from the green fintech space.​

Calvin shared real-world success stories on how Wizpresso’s AI platforms help hundreds of enterprises navigate complex ESG and climate disclosure requirements, aligning with dozens of evolving reporting standards (eg, Appendix C2, IFRS S1, S2, TCFD, and more) while reducing manual effort and compliance risk. From automating evidence gathering to mapping disclosures across multiple frameworks, our goal is to turn regulatory pressure into a catalyst for better data, better reporting, and better decision-making.​

💡 A key takeaway from the discussion was that the green fintech ecosystem is becoming richer, with more specialised AI players emerging to serve different green and sustainable finance workflows – from taxonomy screening to climate risk analysis and impact reporting. This diversity is healthy for the market and critical to scaling sustainable finance infrastructure in the region.​

At the same time, there is still significant work to encourage more enterprises to leverage technology to unlock sustainability-linked loans (SLLs) and green bond financing at scale. Many organisations continue to face challenges with fragmented data, manual disclosure processes, and translating transition plans into measurable, verifiable KPIs suitable for labelled products.​

Thank you to Business Environment Council and Invest Hong Kong behind the BEC Green Fintech Fair for convening such an important conversation between ecosystem players.

Wizpresso 濃說 was delighted to take part in the Evergreen 2025 Sustainable Vision Forum in Shenzhen, hosted by 中诚信绿金国际 CCXGFI, where our founder & CEO Calvin Cheng joined leaders from across finance and sustainability to discuss how AI can transform ESG compliance and disclosures.

During the “AI Empowering ESG” session, Calvin shared how issuers and financial institutions can:

💡 Move from manual, document-heavy checks to AI-assisted verification that links ESG claims to underlying evidence
💡 Monitor evolving ESG and climate reporting requirements more efficiently and identify disclosure gaps in real time
💡 Break down silos between sustainability, risk, finance, and investor relations teams through integrated, audit-ready workflows

Through solutions like Wizpresso and , we help organizations enhance disclosure integrity, reduce operational risk, and build greater trust in ESG data as sustainable finance continues to scale.

A sincere thank you to CCXGFI for the kind invitation and excellent event curation. We look forward to continued collaboration with partners across the ecosystem to advance transparent, data-driven, and AI-enabled sustainable finance in the region and beyond.
