In today's rapidly changing business environment, fintech is reshaping corporate globalization strategies at an unprecedented pace. Whether it's the convenience of cross-border payments or the innovative services of digital banking, FinTech provides robust support for companies to expand into international markets. At the same time, corporate globalization faces new challenges and opportunities.

On the afternoon of Friday, 21 March 2025, the University of Manchester China Centre is honoured to invite Mr. Wei Yan, a 2017 Global MBA alumnus and the Head of a global leading bank, to share his insights and thoughts on how FinTech can assist in corporate globalization strategies.

He has accumulated extensive cross-industry and cross-market experience. In this event, he will share his observations and thoughts on fintech and international business expansion and discuss with participants how to leverage global resources to better "go global".
