Gala Dinner 2025 | RESONANCE

On 6 June 2025, the French Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Hong Kong hosted its annual Gala Dinner under the inspiring theme RESONANCE, at the prestigious Regent Hong Kong.

More than just an evening of elegance, RESONANCE symbolised the invisible yet powerful forces that bring people together – shared values, meaningful connections, and a collective commitment to our community.

We were deeply honoured to welcome our Guest of Honour, The Honourable Paul Chan, Financial Secretary of the HKSAR, whose presence marked the significance of this evening. We also extend our sincere thanks to Christile Drulhe, the Consul General of France in Hong Kong and Macau for joining us in this celebration of Franco-Hong Kong ties.

This year’s Gala held special meaning as we marked the 10th anniversary of the French Chamber Foundation, our charitable arm dedicated to supporting low-income workers in Hong Kong. This milestone was a poignant reminder of the ongoing importance of solidarity and community support. It is never too late to contribute to the Foundation’s work – and we were honoured to share this moment with all our guests.

A TEAM EFFORT

Our gratitude goes to our Gala Committee – Mary Chiu, Eva Yu, Julien-Loïc Garin, Rebecca Silli and Alain Li, our President – for their creativity and dedication in curating such a memorable evening.

A special thank you to Audrey Lee, our exceptional auctioneer, whose energy lit up the room during the live auction. We also thank Chef Franckelie for crafting a refined culinary experience that delighted every guest.

We were privileged to have the support of so many:

• Our partners, table bookers, and auction sponsors (both live and silent),
• The production team at WHATIF for bringing the evening to life with precision and flair,
• Our wonderful MC, Robyn, who guided the night seamlessly,
• The performers who added magic to the evening,
• And DJ Ken San, who kept the celebration going at the afterparty.

Of course, none of this would have been possible without the dedication and hard work of the French Chamber team, whose behind-the-scenes efforts ensured the evening’s success.

The Gala Dinner – RESONANCE was a true reflection of our Chamber’s spirit: dynamic, inclusive, and forward-looking.

Together, we resonated – and together, we look ahead to new opportunities to connect, engage and make an impact.
