AustCham, in collaboration with BenCham and Danish Chamber, are pleased to announce the first edition of our InterChamber Young Professional Series “A Tour Behind the Doors of Luxury” on February 17 at the Peninsula Hotel Beijing.
Post Event Summary:
The Young Professional Series Event took on the theme of luxurious, grandiose proportions on February 17, much to the delight of our younger members. The event was designed as a three-part tour, starting with ‘An Imperial Rebirth’, behind the scences of the newly renovated Peninsula Hotel. Total renovation costs were over RMB 900 million, and our members were given the opportunity to learn about Peninsula’s marketing strategy in the Chinese market. The second stop was to the Sennheiser ‘unique experience room’, located conveniently within the Peninsula Hotel itself. Germany’s leading audio brand, Sennhesier demonstrated its brand-success by showcasing its latest technologies and how it constantly evolves and continues to address a greater proportion of the market. The values of high quality, respect for craftsmanship and passion for visionary ideas were discussed as the foundations for the company’s success. The event finally ended at Vanderteen with a special focus on the beverage brands Belgian specialty beers, providing a chance for networking drinks for our members.

Destination I: An Imperial Rebirth
During this kick-off event, we will start with a tour behind of the scenes of the newly unveiled renovated Peninsula hotel, located in the heart of Beijing. “The inspiration behind the rebirth of The Peninsula Beijing is informed by the Middle Kingdom’s opulent imperial palaces and tranquil gardens, which provided a serene oasis for Chinese Emperors and nobility to meditate and relax.” Total renovation costs were estimated to be RMB 890 million (US$ 123 million). We will also get the chance to learn about Peninsula’s marketing strategy in the Chinese market.
Destination II: Shaping the Future of Audio
Secondly, we will visit Sennheiser’s unique experience room located inside the Peninsula itself. Sennheiser, a leading Germany audio company, is at the forefront of shaping people’s perceptions of audio technology and creating opportunities for them to use the future of audio today in their daily lives. In the experience room, Sennheiser is presenting the latest technologies, showcasing how its precise craftsmanship and visionary ideas are shaping the future of audio.
Destination III: Vandergeeten Networking Drink
At the end of the tour, Vandergeeten – a leading distributor of fine European beverages with a focus on Belgian speciality beers – will host the networking drink. There will be the opportunity to develop and expand your professional network, catch up with old friends, make new friends and meet members of different chambers from different countries.
