Our Managing Director Bonnie Chiu, in this blog reflects on 10 incredible years at The Social Investment Consultancy (TSIC) and shared three key experiences that defined her early days. In her own words: “How many ten years are there in a lifetime? Life is short, and a decade is a long time, but also the perfect moment for reflection.” Bonnie indicates that a defining moment in her journey was leading a report on supplier diversity, advocating for ethnic minority-owned businesses in the UK, adding that these early projects paved the way for later initiatives like the Diversity Forum and Pathway Fund, which continues to push boundaries in racial equity and social investment.

During the World Trade Organization public forum, our MD Bonnie Chiu reflected on her personal experiences growing up in Hong Kong and how free trade must be more equitably distributed across society.

She added that with the rise of populist politics and anti-globalisation sentiments, the need to centre inclusion in trade has never been more urgent.
