IFXEXPO Asia 2013
The welcoming party sponsored by SpotOption kicked off the beginning of the expo.
The first day event opened with a traditional 'awakening of the dragon' ceremony.
Then the expo hall's doors opened and visitors poured in to find what is probably the largest forex expo held to date. Here began what we all came for - networking.
Both days were filled with interesting panels and keynote speeches such as the Liquidity Panel moderated by Boston Prime's Mitch Eaglstein hosting esteemed speakers such as Rob Fleschler of HotSpot, Alex Knight of CitiFX Pro, Stephen Lynch of Nomura, Shane Braunstein of Gain Capital, Darren Jer of MarketsFactory & Harpal Sandhu of Integral.
The second day concluded with the Tradenext sponsored bar which brought a great party spirit from the visitors.
The events schedule for 2013 is as follows:
- January 23-24, Macau
- May 29-30, Cyprus
- 1st week of July, Tokyo
- November 12, London
