On 19th March, the European Chamber CSR Committee and AmCham’s China Business Sustainability Committee cordially invite you to join an inter-chamber networking event. We are honoured to have James Chen, chairman of the Chen Yet-Sen Family Foundation, to share his personal philanthropic journey.
Born in Hong Kong, raised in Africa, and educated in Europe and the US, James Chen is a venture philanthropist with a global outlook. His journey has included projects that tackle early childhood literacy to helping 2.5 billion people around the world improve their vision. He is doing all of this while marshalling innovators, start-ups, national governments and non-governmental organisations to see that people receive a better quality of life.
In this compelling talk, Mr Chen will discuss:
· his inspiration for becoming a philanthropist;
· why traditional philanthropy models need to change; and
· the power of “audacious philanthropy”.
Catch up with old friends and do not miss out on this fantastic opportunity to develop your professional CSR network!
6:45-8:15PM Networking (free flow of beer, soft drinks; finger food will also be provided)
