Asia Family Office Foundation Joins NovaX for Global Investmatch Carnival
NovaX, a Hong Kong-based investment and financing platform dedicated to technological advancement, has announced a strategic partnership with the Asia Family Office Foundation (AFOF). MedTech World congratulates both organisations on this collaboration, which will bring increased family office engagement to the Global Investmatch Carnival, taking place from June 30 to July 1, 2025, at AsiaWorld-Expo. Attendees of the MedTech World Hong Kong Roadshow, held during the carnival, will have the opportunity to explore this convergence of healthcare innovation and private capital.
This collaboration will be prominently featured during the Global Investmatch Carnival, bringing together more than 10,000 attendees, including 500 international investors and over 250 global companies. As part of this landmark gathering, NovaX and AFOF will co-host a high-level venture capital dinner, offering curated matchmaking opportunities between leading family offices and innovative technology ventures.
MedTech World at the Forefront
MedTech World, an official partner of the NovaX Global Investmatch Carnival, will anchor its Hong Kong Roadshow within the broader event framework. The roadshow will spotlight investment in MedTech, HealthTech, and life sciences, featuring a curated selection of startup showcases, panel discussions, and networking opportunities. By embedding itself in this expansive event, MedTech World will bring together entrepreneurs, investors, regulators, and institutions to support cross-border innovation.
In a statement, Zhao Lei, co-founder of NovaX, emphasized the strategic alignment: “The partnership with the Asian Family Office Foundation (AFOF) is a key step in the evolution of the NovaX ecosystem. Hong Kong is not only a highland for technology financing, but also a ‘strategic outpost’ for global family offices to deploy in Asia. We look forward to building a bridge of ‘precise matching and long-term win-win’ between technology companies and family capital through the integration of resources of both parties.”
Jacky Leung, Vice Chairman of AFOF, added: “I would like to extend my sincere congratulations and expectations to the upcoming NovaX Global Investmatch Carnival 2025. As an important event in the field of global innovation and investment, it has always been committed to the mission of ‘connecting global capital and empowering cutting-edge technology’, which is highly consistent with AFOF’s vision of promoting the integration of family capital and emerging industries in Asia.”

Hong Kong as a Strategic Hub
Hong Kong remains an increasingly attractive base for private wealth and family office operations. With assets under management exceeding US$1.3 trillion and a supportive regulatory framework—including the Family Office Tax Exemption Scheme—the city is well positioned to connect Chinese innovation with global capital.
As a key regional node in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, Hong Kong is also home to 35% of the world’s green bond issuance, making it a strong platform for ESG investments. NovaX’s venture capital ecosystem and MedTech World’s health-focused programming create synergistic avenues for family offices to support emerging technologies while aligning with long-term sustainability goals.
Together, NovaX, AFOF, and MedTech World are building a forward-looking ecosystem that empowers family capital to fuel tomorrow’s breakthroughs in healthcare, technology, and sustainable development.
