Dear members,  

How time flies, we're already in the 3rd month of year 2011. This year, ACfPU is dedicated to bring you something new, more exciting and more interesting.

We are delighted to invite you to our first event of the year - NOT just another City drink reception!
 
ACfPU has teamed up with m{us}e - an art club with an experiential edge – and Sina.com to bring you a networking evening
in the tasteful setting of Tim Flach’s Equus Exhibition
in one of the City's most confidential membership clubs
featuring a talk by Tim, an internationally renowned photographer and artist.
 
Event Details

*                 Time - 7pm, 14 March 201 1
*                 Venue - Eight, Change Alley, http://www.eightclub.co.uk/EC3/
*                 Dress Code - Business Attire / Dressy
*                 Price – hmmmmm…

As City professionals soaked in the corporate world, we are financially well rewarded. But does money really bring quality to our lifestyles? This year, ACfPU will focus on bringing "Work-Life Balance" to new heights, and seeks the immense enjoyment of life together with you.

Art is a most expressive form of beauty and quality. Over the past 100 years, the Chinese general public may not have had the luxury to enjoy and invest in Art. At ACfPU, we wish that our generation can re-gain the enjoyment in arts and beauty, and on top of that, re-establish and re-introduce the art culture to the Chinese community. As City professionals in the UK, we are highly educated, have tastes as well as financial strength not only to appreciate art, but also to realize the value behind these fine objects. Art as an Alternative Investment has performed in the western world for hundreds of years. We worked very hard in bringing you this intimate art experience, and sincerely hope that it will provide you not only a pleasant evening, but also some inspiration in whatever shapes or forms.

Could it be any better? Yes. Ever fancied having a drink in a hidden gem in the City, a private club only open to its members, with a whole new experience behind a mysterious door? We will bring you into the Eight Club, one of the City's most exclusive membership clubs. As soon as you receive our Exclusive Invitation, you are set for a journey far from ordinary.

This event is proudly Co- hosted by Sina.com. Representatives from Sina.com will also join us on the evening.

After falling in love with London, do you find it far from your life when we talk about China?

Why not join Sina Weibo (Microblogging, 微博，又称‘围脖’), the dynamic and fascinating new social network for cool Londoners? It makes it easier for us to effectively expand our professional social circle and get in touch with like minded folks, here in Europe and there in China.

Most importantly, we Chinese financial professionals can gather together through Weibo and show our own voice in Sina, bridging China and UK in financial sector.

Ready to explore more about this Chinese twitter / Weibo? Join us in this lovely evening, we will show you more.

----------------------------------

Oh, did I mention the event is free? Yes, and a glass of wine will be provided for free for the first 60 RSVPs (and ￡10 for anyone signed up after and at the door), so please RSVP to joyce.zhang@acfpu.org.uk if you are interested. Snacks will be also provided throughout the night.

Looking forward to seeing you there!

Association of Chinese Financial Professionals in the UK (ACfPU)

Chinese Association of Financial Executives (CAFE)

 Annual Drink Reception

 

英国华人金融协会成立于两年前，诞生于西方金融危机最为严峻的时刻。协会聚集了数千位拼搏在英国金融城的华人专业人士，他们在中国及西方受过教育，并且积累了在西方金融机构工作的丰富经验。他们具有全球视野，同时又非常关注中国经济金融改革的发展。协会通过多元化的活动方式为会员提供专业,、商业、学术与个人交流的强大平台，相互沟通信息，并与国内的各类机构保持互动，起到了连接国际与国内，个人与团体的桥梁作用。成立两年来，我们建立了英国及欧洲的金融人才数据库，筹备出版协会年刊和书籍，召开了定期行业座谈，并建立了与中国企业家协会的长期合作关系。由于协会在中英人才培训交流（如国际人才交流大会）以及组织参与中英企业业务交流（如中英经济学家讨论会）的突出贡献，我们在2010年初获得上海市政府以及交通大学联名颁发的 “世界华人金融精英领袖奖”。 

 

作为英国华人金融协会的顾问委员会, 华人金融家协会(CAFE)集中了许多在伦敦城工作的资深金融精英，他们的参与进一步提升了英国华人金融协会的影响力，今年我们也将一起共庆周年。同时，今年我们请到了中国国际金融公司总裁朱云来先生为我们作主题发言，与我们分享他对国际国内经济金融走势的精辟见解。此次周年庆典不能不说是全英最大的华人金融盛会！

 

在新的一年里，我们的首要任务是继续发展、巩固和扩大与国内外企业的合作关系，并且在与各界金融人士携手共进的同时, 进一步扩大协会的合作领域。要达到这个目标，我们离不开社会各界的支持与鼓励。同时，协会的性质决定了我们有能力，也有责任为海外的华人提供一个落脚点，一个家。因此，如果您能在繁忙的工作中拨冗前来参加我们的活动，相信这将为我们新一年的互惠、友好合作奠定坚实的基础！

 

活动情况具体如下：

 时间：12月7日晚7时

地点：Norton Rose LLP, 3 More London Riverside, London SE1 2AQ
