On Saturday, 23 September 2023, CCI France Chine Beijing hosted its annual Gala dinner at the Hyatt Regency Beijing. The event, themed “Embracing the ESG Transformation”, brought together over 600 guests from the French and Chinese business communities, including officials, executives, and media representatives.

The evening began with a glamorous welcome reception, followed by a cocktail dinner featuring live performances by the Beijing Symphonic Orchestra “Accent”, a fashion show, and the presentation of the ESG Awards. These awards recognised outstanding Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) practices among CCI France Chine member companies operating in China.

As a member of CCI France Chine Beijing, A Trails was proud to sponsor this prestigious event, offering a Victoria Cruises Yangtze River cruise as one of the top prizes. Our Business Development Director, Justin Culkin, presented the prize to the lucky winner, who had the option to choose between two packages: a 5 days/4 nights upstream cruise from Yichang to Chongqing or a 4 days/3 nights downstream cruise from Chongqing to Yichang.

The cruise package included two tickets for a superior cabin on the main deck of the luxurious Victoria Sabrina, meals on board, and three shore excursions, including visits to Shuang Guishan Mountain at Fengdu, Goddess Stream, and the Three Gorges Dam site.

The gala was a resounding success and we look forward to attending and fully supporting CCI France Chine at next year’s event!
