Appointment of new Secretary General at the European Chamber 

Beijing, 24th February, 2009. The European Union Chamber of Commerce in China is pleased to announce the appointment of Dirk Moens to the position of Secretary General. Dirk succeeds Marianne Friese in the position, and will officially take office on 1st March, 2009.

A native of Belgium, Dirk brings to the Chamber both his extensive experience of China’s business environment, where for the past six years he has been at the helm of a leading FMCG multinational, as well as a wealth of international management expertise.

Prior to joining the Chamber, the 52 year-old served as Chairman of InBev China overseeing Joint Venture partners and Government Relations, a role that brought him into close contact with key government officials on the local, provincial and national levels.

This key posting followed a long and distinguished career with InBev where he served in a number of senior management positions globally, including as a member of Executive Board of Management for InBev responsible for Asia Pacific. During his career he and his family have lived and worked in Africa, Europe, Latin America and Asia.

Based in China since 2002, Mr. Moens is already part of the Chamber family, having served on the Board of the European Chamber’s Shanghai Chapter for the past year.

Joerg Wuttke, President of the European Chamber said: “Dirk’s exceptional track record of over 20 years in global management speaks for itself, and I’m delighted that the Chamber can benefit from his experience.”
