Congratulations to the 2025-26 Executive Committee!

We are delighted to announce our new Executive Committee of ten business professionals. The committee sets the strategy and direction for the Chamber, ensuring its long-term growth and vision for future years.

This year’s committee is one of the most diverse yet, representing the vibrancy of British business interests in China. A gender-balanced committee, they represent sectors from professional services, education, energy, sports, and more. Three of the ten members represent small and medium businesses (SMEs), with three members who are brand new to the committee this year.

The Executive Committee for 2025-26 was elected at BritCham’s Annual General Meeting on Wednesday 11th June, in an election overseen by Lewis Neal, HM Trade Commissioner for China and Hong Kong. The results of the election were announced at the King’s Garden Party – the Chamber’s annual member appreciation reception.
