Championing Innovation: PyCon HK 2025 is Proud to Welcome LGT Private Banking as a Platinum Sponsor

The success of a community-driven event like PyCon Hong Kong is built on the shared passion of its members and the crucial support of visionary partners. Today, we are absolutely delighted to announce a significant partnership that embodies this spirit of forward-thinking collaboration.

Please join us in giving a warm and grateful welcome to LGT Private Banking, who will be joining us for PyCon HK 2025 as a Platinum Sponsor!

A Legacy of Excellence and a Vision for the Future

For those who may not be familiar with them, LGT Private Banking is not just a sponsor; they are a global powerhouse in international private banking and asset management. What makes LGT unique is its foundation: the group has been fully controlled by the Princely Family of Liechtenstein for over 90 years. This heritage brings a rare perspective focused on stability, long-term thinking, and sustainable value creation—principles that resonate deeply within the open-source community.

With an impressive CHF 359.6 billion (USD 451.6 billion) in assets under management (as of 30 June 2025), LGT serves wealthy private individuals and institutional clients across the globe. Their team of over 6,000 dedicated professionals operates from more than 30 locations, spanning Europe, Asia, the Americas, Australia, and the Middle East, demonstrating a truly global reach and a profound understanding of diverse markets.

A Shared Commitment to Empowering Growth and Innovation

At first glance, a partnership between a premier private bank and a Python conference might seem unexpected. But when you look closer at LGT’s core mission—to empower growth and innovation—the connection becomes crystal clear.

In today’s world, technology is the primary driver of innovation across every industry, and finance is at the forefront of this transformation. Python, with its versatility, powerful libraries for data science, and robust frameworks, is the language behind much of the fintech revolution, algorithmic trading, risk management, and data-driven financial modeling.

LGT's support for PyCon Hong Kong is a testament to their recognition of technology's pivotal role in shaping the future. It is a powerful statement that acknowledges the Python ecosystem as a critical engine for building the tools and solutions of tomorrow. Their sponsorship is an investment not just in our conference, but in the people who are actively coding that future.

What This Means for the PyCon HK Community

LGT's generous Platinum sponsorship directly translates into a more impactful and enriching experience for every attendee. This support enables us to:

Expand our program with more diverse talks, tutorials, and workshops.
Bring in renowned speakers from Hong Kong and around the world.
Enhance the conference experience for all participants, both in-person and online.
Foster a vibrant environment for networking, learning, and collaboration.

This partnership ensures that PyCon HK 2025 will be our most ambitious and valuable event yet.
