This grand event, themed “AI × RWA: Education Tokenization — RWA UNIVERSITY Officially Launches,” is hosted by RWA University, with leading Web3 media ME Group serving as the inaugural media partner, Hong Kong-listed company Caihua Group (08317.HK) as the core co-host, and Nasdaq-listed enterprises BitOrigin and BGIN as joint initiators. The event is collaboratively supported by multiple ecosystem institutions, including RWA Daily, RWA 100, Uweb, RWA Exchange, UXUY, Crypto Big Beauty, Lao Luo’s Digital Asset Wealth Talk, and Yunzun Group.
The live stream attracted nearly a thousand professionals from Web3, traditional finance, technology, and compliance sectors worldwide, maintaining high engagement throughout the nearly three-hour broadcast. Post-event market feedback confirms that the successful execution of this event fully demonstrates that the RWA sector has shifted from competition in technology and capital to a deep demand for standardized talent infrastructure, marking the transition of industry talent system building from concept to reality.
As the world’s first professional education-industry integration platform dedicated to real-world assets (RWA), RWA University was founded by Hong Qigong and operates under a dual-engine strategy powered by “AI Engine” and “RWA Infrastructure,” creating a fully integrated industrial ecosystem spanning “learning—certification—practical application—assetization.” Unlike fragmented, trading-focused courses prevalent in the market, the platform emphasizes industry实战 (practical application) and regulatory compliance, delivering structured curricula, authoritative certifications, and high-quality industry resources tailored for financial professionals, Web3 builders, and industry learners. At this prestigious event, the CDAA Hong Kong-Registered Digital Asset Analyst professional certification is officially launched. Endorsed by Mr. Liang Dingbang, former Chairman of the Hong Kong Securities and Futures Commission, this certification grants learners an on-chain NFT digital certificate upon course completion and successful assessment, enabling verifiable, traceable, and transferable academic credentials on the blockchain—finally addressing the industry’s longstanding challenges of ambiguous professional identities and inconsistent competency standards.
Industry leaders gather to discuss strategies, with dual implementation of strategy and certification reshaping RWA talent standards.
This grand event brings together top industry experts, including Hong Qigong, Lao Yuyi, Yu Jianing, Crypto Big Beautiful, Li Rujun, Luo Mingrong, Meng Yan, Kevin, and Li Junshan, who will share insights across three core areas: academic theory, practical trading, and compliance practices, comprehensively analyzing the industrial trends and implementation pathways of AI integrated with RWA.
At the event, Hong Qigong, founder of RWA University, officially unpacked the core of the dual-engine strategy, clarifying that the fundamental development logic is “AI empowers industry efficiency, and RWA anchors real-world value.” He summarized the relationship between this strategy and everyone in one sentence: “AI is the engine, RWA is the track—they are inseparable—and continuous learning is the essential path that enables every individual to take hold of the steering wheel and drive toward the future.”
Lau Yuk-yee, Chairperson of Cai Hua She Group, leveraging her experience with the implementation of the CEPA framework, provided an in-depth analysis of Hong Kong’s RWA industry opportunities, stating that Hong Kong’s RWA sector lacks neither products nor technology—its greatest gap over the next two decades lies in professional, multidisciplinary talent, precisely highlighting the platform’s industrial value. Several industry mentors shared deep insights across academic theory, practical trading, and compliance practices, helping professionals build a systematic framework for understanding and a clear path for practical application.
Meanwhile, Dr. Yu Jia Ning provided an in-depth perspective on the overall educational direction, witnessing the official entry of China’s first batch of institutionalized and standardized RWA professionals. Subsequently, Crypto Big Beauty, Professor Luo Mingrong, Professor Li Rujun, Professor Meng Yan, and Professor Kevin delivered comprehensive and systematic presentations on their respective areas of expertise, offering the approximately 1,000 attendees a complete course spanning from AI to RWA, from theoretical knowledge to practical application. During the live interactive session, participating professionals actively asked questions on core issues such as compliance boundaries, AI Agent implementation, ABST industry applications, and global certification adoption, further confirming the market’s urgent need for a standardized talent development system.
At the end of the meeting, Dr. Li Junshan systematically outlined the future direction and expectations of RWA from an industry and sector development perspective, providing a comprehensive conclusion to today’s meeting.
End the industry's wild growth and usher in a new phase of standardized RWA development through industry-education integration.
For a long time, the multi-trillion-dollar RWA sector has expanded rapidly, yet the industry has consistently lacked a standardized talent development system, with practitioners mostly relying on fragmented self-study, resulting in uneven skill levels and the absence of industry standards—key bottlenecks hindering the sector’s scalable and standardized growth. The successful conclusion of this inaugural school ceremony marks the RWA industry’s formal transition away from its unregulated, organic development phase and into a new era of institutionalized talent cultivation, standardized competency certification, and ecosystem-wide collaboration.
From an industry perspective, the implementation of the CDAA certification fills the gap in the global RWA industry’s professional talent evaluation system. From a regional standpoint, the launch of RWA University addresses Hong Kong’s shortfall in talent infrastructure, solidifying its foundation as a global RWA hub and supporting the long-term development of Hong Kong’s digital finance sector. As AI technology becomes deeply integrated, global regulatory frameworks continue to mature, and traditional financial institutions accelerate their entry into the space, multidisciplinary talent has become the critical key to competition and growth in the RWA sector.
After the grand event, RWA University will officially launch enrollment for its first cohort of courses, covering three key areas: RWA investment, financing, and AI integration, alongside the implementation of premium initiatives such as in-person executive training programs and global study tours. In the future, the platform will continue to collaborate with listed companies, universities, and authoritative research institutions to advance the global recognition and adoption of the CDAA certification system, further refining a comprehensive industry-education integration ecosystem.
As mentor Meng Yan stated at the ceremony: "RWA is both a transition and the ultimate endpoint. 2027 may be the golden window for Native RWA, and it will certainly be integrated with AI. The vision is—所有资产都将上链."
The long-term development of the industry has never depended solely on technological iteration or capital hype; a standardized talent supply system is the fundamental cornerstone for sustainable and steady growth. With the official launch of RWA University, the RWA sector will enter a new era of systematic, professional, and standardized talent development, continuously supplying core workforce for the trillion-dollar real-world asset tokenization industry.
