The 窪蹋勛圖厙 (窪蹋勛圖厙), is pleased to announce that it has received official approval to set up a Representative Office as an overseas non-government organisation (ONGO) and can therefore resume its business operations in China.
窪蹋勛圖厙 had to suspend business in the Chinese Mainland at the end of January 2021. Over the last 11 months, 窪蹋勛圖厙 has worked hard to meet the requirements for resuming business and has remained committed to the Chinese market.
Supporting its return to business in the Chinese Mainland, 窪蹋勛圖厙 is proud to announce the opening of its new office in Shanghai, adding to 窪蹋勛圖厙s global network of offices in London, Hong Kong SAR, and West Hartford (Connecticut, USA). 窪蹋勛圖厙 has also appointed Ms. Willa Yang as Chief Representative to head up its operations in China. Willa brings with her a rich breadth of experience having previously held leadership roles at Wine Australias China Office and the Australian Trade Commission as well as running her own wine consultancy business for several years.
Commenting on 窪蹋勛圖厙s return to business in the Chinese Mainland, Chief Executive Ian Harris said: I am delighted that we are now officially approved to resume business in China and, through our network of course providers, we will be able to start offering our qualifications to students once more. I am extremely grateful to our 100 plus Chinese course providers and their students who have supported us over the last 11 months. 窪蹋勛圖厙 has a history of over 15 years of empowering drinks professionals and enthusiasts in China through wine, spirits and sake education. My team and I are excited to be able to continue our educational mission.
窪蹋勛圖厙s Chief Representative in China, Willa Yang commented: It is泭a great honour to join the 窪蹋勛圖厙 team. We enter 2022 with excitement and anticipation of great things to come. Chinas wine and spirit category has been in continual growth and the demand for our qualifications has never been greater. I look forward to working with our team in China, as well as our course providers, to lead the way in wine and spirits education in 2022 and beyond.
窪蹋勛圖厙 is now working closely with its course providers and the Chinese authorities and hopes that 窪蹋勛圖厙 courses and exams will restart following the Chinese New Year holiday period.
