Institute of Hospitality (IoH) Hong Kong Branch

The Institute of Hospitality (IoH) chartered its new Hong Kong Branch on 19 September 2007 . At the recent Annual General Meeting of the IoH Hong Kong Branch held in PolyU, Mr Edward Theobold, General Manager of The Park Lane Hong Kong, has been elected Chairman of the Branch and Ms Cynthia Leung, Assistant General Manager-General Catering Division of LSC Catering Hong Kong Ltd, has been elected Vice Chairman. Prof Kaye Chon, Chair Professor and Director of SHTM is Advisor to the Branch.

The setting up of a Hong Kong Branch adds greatly to the value of the Institute for the Hong Kong members who will be able to better network with their peers within the region to everyone's mutual benefit. The association with PolyU further facilitates the communication of the academic efforts which are essential within the region during a period of such dramatic growth providing opportunities for everyone involved. With the establishment of the IoH Hong Kong Branch, a Secretariat of the Branch has been set up in SHTM. For more information on IoH, please visit www.instituteofhospitality.org.
