The Marketing Society has announced a leadership update in its Hong Kong location, as part of its work to inspire, accelerate and unite a community of senior marketers across the region.
We are delighted to welcome Hilda Chan, Chief Marketing Officer at the Hong Kong Science and Technology Parks Corporation (HKSTP), to the Hong Kong board.
Hilda brings more than a decade of marketing leadership spanning agency and client side. Before moving client side, she built her craft at TBWA, McCann Worldgroup, Publicis and Leo Burnett across Hong Kong and China, and was named Client of the Year at the Kam Fan Awards. At the Hong Kong Tourism Board, she helped reposition Hong Kong as the world's number one tourist destination in 2019, with her team winning more than 130 industry, creativity and marketing awards along the way. At HKSTP, Hilda now leads the strategy behind promoting Hong Kong as a global hub for innovation and technology, spanning brand, content, digital, events and public relations.
