十九世紀美國加州的淘金熱, 改變了香港的命運. 1848年，加州發現金礦，令華南地區尤其是珠江三角洲的人，前仆後繼通過香港遠渡重洋，尋找他們的金山，淘金熱把太平洋變成了連接北美洲和亞洲的幹道，而香港則成為航運、金融、貨物、資訊、乘客網絡的中介地。金山行業應運而生，成為香港經濟支柱之一。金山行和既有的南北行聯繫起來，讓香港更成功的發揮它貫通東南西北的地理優勢。本會很榮幸能夠邀請到冼玉儀教授去講述這段歷史。

冼玉儀教授在香港土生土長，在香港大學畢業，主力研究近代中國及香港史，尤致力研究慈善事業、商業、文化、傳媒及移民史。退休前，曾任港大亞洲研究中心副主任。大學教職外，曾任香港研究資助局人文學小組成員及衞奕信勳爵文物信託理事會成員；歷任古物諮詢委員會成員，並因此獲頒銅紫荊星章。她透過「香港記憶計劃」，建立有關香港歷史、文化的多媒體網平台。她現任港大人文及社會研究所名譽教授、香港歷史博物館專家榮譽顧問及【香港志】編審委員會召集人。其著作包括 Power and Charity: The Early History of the Tung Wah Hospital（1989），The Last Half Century of Chinese Overseas（1998），Pacific Crossing: California Gold, Chinese Migration, and the Making of Hong Kong（2013）以及The Bank of East Asia: A Century of Innovation, Progress and Commitment, 1919-2019（2019）.
