What Hubbis does

Hubbis is a privately held, family-owned B2B media and events company focused on the Asian wealth management industry, headquartered in Hong Kong as Hubbis (HK) Limited. It produces curated editorial content, research publications, video, and a recurring annual outlook franchise covering private banks, retail banks, IFAs, family offices, independent wealth managers, insurance companies, asset managers and professional services firms across approximately 11 markets including Hong Kong, Singapore, India, the UAE, Malaysia, the Philippines, Vietnam, Thailand, Indonesia, Taiwan and China. The platform reaches a stated community of roughly 30,000 industry contacts through 194 partner organizations and a combination of 24 flagship wealth management forums, 70+ bespoke client events, and a Digital Dialogue webinar series, with a Dubai presence covering the Middle East.

The core technology is a digital media and events platform rather than a software product: there is no mobile app, no public API, no SDK, and no proprietary AI model. The product suite comprises a news and articles platform, white papers and thought-leadership publications, partner insights, video content, a gated special-reports portal (pwams.hubbis.com) for annual outlooks and rankings, and the Wealtra learning platform (wealtra.com) offering training for wealth management professionals. Distribution is direct, event-driven and relationship-led, with content amplified through newsletters, social media and a 30,000-contact database.

Hubbis generates revenue primarily through event sponsorship packages, bespoke client events, and content and learning solutions. Pricing is not publicly disclosed and is negotiated directly with sponsors and partners. The go-to-market targets enterprise buyers across multiple wealth management segments rather than any single vertical, and the business is run by founder and CEO Michael Stanhope with a small senior team that includes family members in operating roles and a non-family Managing Director of Investments; there is no disclosed external funding, parent company or subsidiary structure.
