Professor Véronique Lafon-Vinais Appointed Knight of the National Order of Merit
We are delighted to congratulate Véronique Lafon-Vinais, Adjunct Associate Professor, the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST), on her appointment as Knight of the National Order of Merit, conferred by the President of the French Republic. This honour recognises her outstanding commitment to sustainable finance and the promotion of academic cooperation between France and Hong Kong.
This prestigious distinction not only celebrates Véronique’s personal achievements but also underscores the excellence of French expertise in green finance, the significant presence of French financial players in Hong Kong, and the potential for further strengthening exchanges in this field. With Paris as the leading financial centre in the Eurozone and Hong Kong the third largest financial centre globally, this recognition symbolises the dynamic partnership and shared ambition between our two financial hubs.
Congratulations once again to Véronique Lafon-Vinais for this remarkable recognition and for her contribution to fostering sustainable finance and academic collaboration across continents.
