The 2024 Family Business Summit (FBS) concluded in Hong Kong as the principal members of more than 100 wealthy families exchanged views on a broad range of topics with distinguished speakers from different fields.
The second day of the by-invitation event kicked off with a discussion about opportunities in the Association of Southeast Asian Nations (Asean) as Malaysia prepares to assume the rotating chairmanship of the regional bloc. The panel, moderated by the Post’s Executive Managing Editor Zuraidah Ibrahim, featured Malaysia’s Minister of Transport Anthony Loke and Tony Fernandes, the chief executive of Capital A Berhad, which operates Southeast Asia’s largest airline AirAsia.
A panel about Hong Kong’s role in cutting-edge science was headlined by two trailblazing researchers from the Faculty of Medicine of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, both among the world’s foremost authorities in their respective fields.

A panel about the future of Europe’s security took place before lunch. Moderated by JPMorgan’s co-head of global banking Filippo Gori, the panel featured the European Commission’s former president Jose Manuel Barroso, the former Spanish Minister of Foreign Affairs Arancha Gonzalez, and Maurice Gourdault-Montagne, the former French ambassador to China, Japan, the UK and Germany.
The highlight of the day was a post-lunch fireside chat about US-China relations with Cui Tiankai, the former Chinese ambassador to the United States who dealt with three administrations through the presidencies of Barack Obama, Donald Trump and Joe Biden.
