Yang Chu (Chris)

Yang is a commercially minded and entrepreneurial Risk Management practitioner, specialising in risk quantification, enterprise risk management, third-party risk management and project/private Finance.  He continually drives the risk and assurance agenda to create added strategic value. Yang is also an expert in cultural intelligence as a Subject Matter Expert (SME) on all things relating to China.  For the last 10 years, Yang has had a highly successful career with a top FTSE 50 company.   

Yang realised that the world is facing an unprecedented risk now; as long as the West does not properly understand China and China does not properly understand the West.  Compared with many other business risks that Yang works to manage; the cultural risk is a much bigger one. In his professional view, if this can be successfully managed, this presents a huge opportunity for the World.  That’s what has motivated him to co-found GuanxiConnect.
