Off to Beijing early this morning for my wedding. The ceremonies (Chinese & European), dinner and party will take place this Saturday. Many of my friends have arrived already, so I am looking forward to meeting them later today. Likely there will be light blogging in the next couple of days.
(for non-Chinese readers: the Chinese character next to this post is the ‘double happiness’ character that is used for weddings in China. There is even a cigarette brand using it as their name and logo, so most Chinese use that brand during weddings. Smart marketing!)
I am a Dutch entrepreneur in Shanghai who has lived and worked over 12 years in China. Co-founder of among others Tudou.com and unitedstyles.com, advisor to Spil Games for which I set up and led the Asian operation (2006-2011), and angel investor in Chinese Internet and tech start-ups. Married to Grace, with whom I have a son (Scott) and a daughter (Elaine). These are my personal views and do not necessarily represent the companies I am involved with.
