■ INTERNAL – PORT OF HAMBURG MARKETING
New Representative at Hamburg’s Chinese Liaison Office
There has been a change in personnel in the Port of Hamburg Marketing Representative Office in Shanghai. The previous manager, Lars Anke, left at his own request to take on new duties in the Hamburg port economy.
The new head is the previous deputy of the Rep- resentative Office Pan Hua. The position as depu- ty head has been taken on by Michael Wunderlich. Having studied Chinese, this China scholar has, in the past, already been active in business in China and Shanghai.
Axel Mattern, Co-CEO of Port of Hamburg Market- ing, is very pleased about the smooth transition: “We naturally regret that Lars Anke, who has given valuable service to the Port of Hamburg for more than twelve years in Shanghai and China general- ly, has now decided to make a change
in his career. With Pan Hua a col- league has taken over the Shang- hai office, who has years of ex- perience and excellent contacts.
In her new function, Pan Hua will ensure the continuity of our work on the spot and going forward be available as contact person
for all of our partners, mem- bers and customers. With Michael Wunderlich, we have signed on a China ‘insider’ who will excel- lently complement the Representative Office team. The ongoing intensive handling of the Chinese market continues to be of great impor-
Imprint
tance for the Port of Hamburg that, with regard to the development of the Belt and Road Initiative, may well increase further.”
Michael Wunderlich brings experience from the fi- nancial sector and international cooperation to the team: As a project manager he worked for a Chi- nese investment company in Berlin and supports the BWA (Federal Association for Economic Devel-
opment and Foreign Trade) as a repre- sentative in the Shanghai area. Michael Wunderlich holds a Master‘s degree in
Chinese Studies from Freie Universität Berlin and previously studied at SISU (Shanghai Foreign Studies University)
and Tongji University.
The Port of Hamburg Represent-
ative Office in China is embed- ded in the Hamburg Liaison Office China – HLO, which is carried by the Hamburg state government, Ham- burg Marketing, Ham- burg Invest, Hamburg Tourism, the Chamber of Commerce and Port of Hamburg Marketing. In addition to Shanghai, HLO also represents these organ- isations through its office in
Beijing.
Pan Hua is the new head of the Representative Office in Shanghai. Michael Wunderlich is the new deputy head.
