The first event in the world, DePin Expo 2025, ended in Hong Kong Cyberport! With the combination of global industry leaders, academics and developers, the event focused on decentralized physical infrastructure (DePin), artificial intelligence, and advanced Web3 applications. More than 20 innovative projects were shown, highlighting the strategic center of Hong Kong as an international center and entry into a new chapter in developing infrastructure in the real world and economic models.
From 27 to 28 August, 2025, the DePin Expo 2025 exhibition, which was sponsored by CGV and Demall, hosted by Web3Labs, Metaera and Techub News, which was organized by Cyberport, in Hong Kong Sipping. Since the first event in the pioneering industry in the world focuses on the decentralized material infrastructure network (DePin), the event, which was shown “LIFE, which was imagined with DePin”, brought together industry leaders, academics, investors and developers from all over the world to discuss how DePin can reshape the real world sensation and economic models.
Opening notes:
Hong Kong becomes a strategic center for DePin and Web3
The conference was officially launched with an editorial of Dr. Cheng Songan, CEO of Hong Kong Cybport. “As the Hong Kong Digital Technology Center and AI Accessor, Cyberport is home to more than 2,200 startups and is proud of the largest Blockchain system and the Cyberport network, including more than 290 investment companies in the field of investment. From DePin with the real economy.
Kevin Ren, the founder of the Deepin exhibition and the Asia Pacific partner of the CGV Fund, delivered a letter entitled “Lift, which was imagined with DePin”, systematically explaining the Depin classification and practical applications in daily life. He pointed out that DePin is not only the physical car to integrate artificial intelligence and Web3, but also the critical infrastructure to achieve the “automatic economy”. Kevin also announced the next Deai exhibition in 2026 to enhance the integration of decentralized artificial intelligence and the material world.
The main speech:
The integration of technology and environmental construction becomes the focus axis
Yao Ding, the head of growth for the Asia Pacific region at the Solana Foundation, participated in how the Solana network was to develop the DePin project through its high performance and at a low cost. He used multiple data points to demonstrate that Solana has become one of the preferred public chains for the DePin project.
Dr. Kay Kayung, CEO of Nano Bit, addressed the issue from the perspective of compliance and capital markets, noting that the cryptocurrency industry is going through integration in one direction, characterized by “the integration of cryptocurrency with Wall Street”. He stressed that high -quality projects must open the value through American stock lists or compatible capital markets, and provided a detailed analysis of the interaction between industry, the market and the organizers.
Allen Yang, a professor at the University of California, Berkeley, of his academic research indicated that energy consumption issues in artificial intelligence applications can pose central risks, and that decentralized computing and edge computing platforms are major solutions. He mentioned specifically the need for local treatment capabilities in the embodied AI and called for decentralization and union for the edge of artificial intelligence.
Political and legislative support:
Hong Kong creates a web friendly environment
In his opening speech on the afternoon of 27 pm, Dr. Wu Gizangang, member of the Legislative Council of the Hong Kong Administrative Zone, and member of the National Committee for the Political Consultative Conference of the Chinese people, detailed the legislative progress of Hong Kong in the virtual assets sector. He pointed out that Hong Kong issued 11 apparent asset exchange licenses and provided regulations for Stablecoins. Next year, the regulations for trading and nursery services will also be provided (OTC). Dr. Wu Jizhauang indicated that the international data assets are of about 4 trillion dollars, 93 % of which are original symbols. The asset symbol in the real world (RWA) still represents less than 1 %, which constitutes huge potential for the future. He emphasized that Hong Kong will cooperate with the United States to enhance industry innovation and called on entrepreneurs to seize the opportunities provided by decentralized payments (DePin) and RWA.
Caspar, CEO of Web3labs, added that the Hong Kong Financial Secretary has allocated funds to support the Cyberport Web3 environmental system. In the past two years, more than 50 projects have been hit and have cooperated with multiple public chains to launch nursery programs to provide comprehensive support to project owners.
Discussion of a round table:
Depin, AI and Web3
The round table discussion was supervised about the twenty -seventh morning “Hong Kong and the path in the DEPIN x Web3 ecosystem”. The guests unanimously agreed that Hong Kong, with its international financial status and open policies, has unique advantages as the DePin axis. Pauline Van, the first vice president of Investhk, stressed the importance of the open sources community, while the Cyberport Rachel Lee noticed that it continues to attract it to Blockchain projects and the general ecosystem. Wang Yuen of the Hong Kong Youth Association said that Deepine could attract the talent of Amnesty International to Hong Kong. Yao Ding of the Solana Foundation believes that Hong Kong, as a bridge between East and West, has great potential in the market. Crystal Tang, CEO of Hitch, shared her experience in the Hitch Open.
Another round table, “How can Debine become a new global infrastructure gate?” , The CGV partner Edward and the participants Henrik Sitiro, a major research official at PEIQ; Chris Bayan Ong, Director of the DPIN Foundation; Logan n, Hyra network director; Gunjan, Vice President of the Ray. Ryan Ma, FMG director. The members of the institutional intermediary committee, the rule of data, and the transformation of compliance discussed, noting that DePin develops from the consumer application to the services of compatible institutions, and becomes a “real new operating system for the real world”.
At the age of twenty -eighth, discussing the round table, “Is rewriting the real world protocols?” Supervised by Nano SVP Lynn. IOTEX ESERNN stated that the current focus on solving black artificial intelligence problems and confidence. JT Song of 0g Labs provided data storage of 0G, computing power, and unanimity solution for DePin. Heric stated that current users prefer devices with income -generating mechanisms. Larry from the Kaya Foundation believes that Deepin’s success requires a powerful user base, real value applications and economies. QUAN Yu shared ROOTDATA visions of investment and financing data, saying that DePin is still one of the most important areas of investors.
Displaying the Road and Environmental Display:
Innovative applications displayed
The conference was distinguished by an open session for the stage, where more than 20 DePin projects were shown, covering a variety of fields including decentralized storage, edge computing, smart devices, data collection, and payment solutions. The following figure shows the collapse of participating projects.
Final expectations:
The DePin system continues to develop, as Hong Kong has become an engine for innovation.
The conference concluded with the signing of vital partnership and discussions. Tokenpost and Techub News signed a strategic partnership agreement, which increases the expansion of the impact of the global media of DePin Expo.
DePin Expo 2025 did not show the latest developments in DePin technology, but also the most prominent Hong Kong strategic site as Web3 and DePin International. From policy support to capital investment, and from academic research to industrial applications, Hong Kong quickly became a basic knot linking the DePin system between East and West.
In the future, DePin Expo will remain committed to building “Ces of the Web3 World” to enhance and empower decentralized technology of public entities.
