Dear Members and Friends
During the last quarter our AGM took place and I was delighted to see
some many members attending. Thank you so much for your continuous support. I
am also pleased to report that Daniel Meyer was elected to the Board of
Directors where his firsthand experience of living and working in Hong Kong as
well as other Asian countries will be a great add-on.
I recently came across an interesting article written by Hong Kong Economic and
Trade Office, Berlin which very nicely captures some of the latest
achievements, mainly (quote)
“The International Institute for
Management Development (IMD) has reaffirmed Hong Kong as one of the
world's most competitive economies, moving up two spots to third place
in its latest World Competitiveness Yearbook.
- According to the World Investment Report
2025 from UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD), Hong Kong also ranked the
third in terms of foreign direct investment inflows in 2024 (US$126
billion).
- Hong Kong is the only city with five
universities in the top 100 of
the Quacquarelli Symonds (QS) World University Rankings.
- Hong Kong's tourism appeal is
equally compelling.
- Adding to its allure, Kai Tak Sports Park, Hong Kong's premier multi-purpose sports,
entertainment and mega event complex, was recently opened in March”(unquote)
So, there are many good reasons to have HK on your strategic map.
We, at SHKBA, are happy to assist you in your Swiss-Hong Kong business
activities. We are just a call (or email) away.
Wishing you a relaxing summer break
Best
wishes

We’re excited to announce that Daniel Meyer, Co-Founder & CEO of Bee People AG has been elected to the Board of the Swiss-Hong Kong Business Association (SHKBA).
Daniel brings extensive leadership experience across Asia and Switzerland — from leading DKSH’s second largest business in China as Managing Director to building the award-winning startup EGO Movement with a successful exit. Now, as co-founder of his new venture Bee People, he is driving innovation in life science and health with Swiss-made, natural superfoods and nutraceuticals combining the ingenuity of bees with the latest science.
His deep ties to China and Switzerland make him a strong asset to SHKBA’s mission.
Congratulations, Daniel!
