David Tang becomes patron of The Pearl Awards, UK

Hong Kong businessman David Tang, of Shanghai Tang and China Tang, has just become Patron of The Pearl Awards.

The Pearl Awards, based in the UK, celebrate the achievement of individuals and organisations of Chinese origin, for their work towards raising the profile and creating a positive image of Chinese people in multi-cultural Britain. Now in its fourth year in 2007, the awards have been growing in importance each year, and with David’s involvement, its profile will only increase.
One Inch Punch think this is very cool. Firstly, because David brings a wealth of experience and contacts, both in business and in society. (Expect to see Jackie Chan and Michelle Yeoh serving the canapés at the next awards in September. Ok, I was just kidding about the canapes.) And secondly, because we like the idea of his Chinese clothing label Shanghai Tang, where the fundamental design concept is inspired from traditional Chinese clothing combined with the modernity and dynamism of the 21st century.
