Chamber Updates July 2024

A Chara

It’s the holiday season, so we’re bit late with this newsletter.

Sorry about that.

Still, let’s take a look at what’s upcoming in July.

Just the one event, well we did mention it was the holidays, and some information on an event we’ve pushed back until later.

You can register here for the Intercham event.

Something for our Members (‘cos we care)

We’re delighted to announce a partnership with Lifestyle Insurance, a discounted insurance comparison platform, to offer 25% discount for members of the Irish Chamber on the standard premium for Home Contents, Travel (single trip & annual policy) and Domestic Helper Insurance.

And to top it off you have a choice of three top Hong Kong insurers.

We understand that like most things in life nowadays the cost of insurance continues to rise and it’s our joint mission to provide better value.

You can also continue to maintain the coverage on the reduced premium rates as long as you remain a member of the Chamber.

This platform has been put together by our very own Neil McCormick (Dip CII) - Head of insurance at Lifestyle Insurance and a member of the Irish Chamber for 17 years.

Neil and the team at Lifestyle are available throughout the process and on hand to help on all insurance matters.

A New Initiative

As you may know, we at the chamber have been looking for ways to interact more closely with the community around us and in that light we are delighted to say that we are now official supporters of a wonderful new initiative.

Set up recently, the Women Workplace Index is the go-to resource for industry information and accreditation on women workplace practices in the Asian region.

You can find out more about their important work here.

June in Hong Kong

The main event of the month was our joint evening of good food, wine and whiskey with the Italian Chamber.

We were delighted to see some new faces and hope they enjoyed it and will come again and bring some friends.

And while it may all have been about wine and whiskey, there was a surprise in store when Neon Tiger turned up with a non-alcoholic option … which actually went faster than the beer and wine.

Although their co-founder Pete was seen with a wine glass.
