Digital Pioneers

I’m about fly to Hong Kong as part of a project called Digital Pioneers with the British Council.

Last year there was a call for ‘entrepreneurs’ working in Digital Media interested in establishing links with Hong Kong. I was shortlisted, interviewed by a panel of high profile judges and then picked as one of the three people from the UK to be ‘digital pioneers’. We are going to HK for networking, research, mentoring, business development, company visits, exhibition visits and if there is time, shopping. Three people from Hong Kong are doing the exact same thing in reverse. Hopefully we will become an international network of digital creative professionals around the world.

The two other people from the UK are Stef Lewandowski and Stafford Sumner. The HK pioneers are Amy Tsang, Kwai Bun VIP (I’ll explain later) and Wallis Wong.
