About this Event

Asian consumer brands are gaining remarkable traction in the UK - not only for their products, but for how they blend heritage with modern innovation.

For entrepreneurs and professionals exploring this fast-evolving space, understanding the real stories behind the trend matters:

How are local consumers responding?

What cultural adaptations are needed to succeed?

And how do investors evaluate these brands from a capital perspective?

In this session, Aiden Patterson, Executive Director at Nomura, joins Daisy Ding and Jing Ma, Co-founders of Lotus Realm, the UK’s first modern Chinese tea house, to share their perspectives from the worlds of capital and creativity.

Join us for an evening of insight, reflection, and connection across entrepreneurship, investment, and cross-cultural branding.

🫖 Light snacks and drinks will be served, with a few partner gifts available for lucky attendees.
