Tokinvest, a Dubai-based marketplace for real-world asset tokenisation, and HKVAX, a Hong Kong-based virtual asset trading platform, have announced a partnership aimed at advancing digital asset markets.
By linking Hong Kong’s financial infrastructure with Dubai’s growing virtual asset ecosystem, the collaboration seeks to expand opportunities for tokenised investments.
The partnership connects Hong Kong, a leading financial hub with a well-established regulatory approach to virtual assets, and Dubai, which has positioned itself as the Middle East’s digital asset centre through its regulatory framework and focus on blockchain technology.
By integrating HKVAX’s SFC-regulated platform in Hong Kong with Tokinvest’s VARA-licensed broker-dealer operations in Dubai, the collaboration creates a cross-regional tokenisation corridor.
This will facilitate token offerings, asset structuring, and secondary market trading while ensuring regulatory compliance across jurisdictions.
The partnership is expected to improve cross-border liquidity, increase market efficiency, and open up investment opportunities in tokenised real-world assets, including real estate, private equity, and alternative assets.
“This strategic bridge between Hong Kong and Dubai represents more than just a partnership – it’s a gateway to seamless digital asset flows between two of Asia’s most dynamic financial centres,”
said Sam Fok, Co-founder and COO of HKVAX.
“Through our collaboration with Tokinvest, we’re creating new pathways for institutional investors while upholding the highest regulatory standards in both markets.”
Scott Thiel, CEO of Tokinvest, added:
“Tokenisation is the future of finance, but to reach its full potential, we need strong regulatory frameworks and seamless market connectivity. This partnership with HKVAX creates a vital link between two global financial hubs, enabling investors to access new opportunities with greater security, liquidity, and efficiency.”
