At CK Hutchison, there is no shortage of
progress and growth to rob meaning from
our achievement and success. This is
evident in the breadth of the Group which
surprises even our veterans of decades
who are amazed to discover new lines of
business, new scientific breakthroughs and
new humanitarian efforts. You can discover
the same in our overview of the Group in
this issue of
Sphere
.
Benjamin Franklin, the American Founding
Father, inventor, author, statesman and
scientist, would have appreciated the
progress of women in the private sector —
trailblazers in engineering and international
relations, just like him. Unlike him, however,
they have succeeded in career paths not
traditionally welcoming to their gender.
Sphere
looks at their breakthrough stories.
While Franklin served as a young printer
in London and as ambassador to Paris,
he might have enjoyed a trip to Sweden
to enjoy hobnobbing with the innovative
engineers of
3
Sweden’s 3Labs, who
have his insatiable curiosity and thirst for
experimentation.
The travelling diplomat Franklin would
definitely have partnered with Hutchison
Travel to make his international jaunts. The
company — formerly known as Hutchison-
Priceline — wants you to know that they
want to work with you, the CK Hutchison
family, given their new freedom to do
business around the world. Growth and
progress are at the top of their agenda as
they go global with their new brand.
Old and new brands of wine are making
inroads into China as its wine industry
expands at a stunning rate. Watson’s
Wine’s success in educating China on
the old world wine culture is also helping
modern China to establish its own wine
culture. It is that kind of past achievement
and success that is supporting the future
growth and progress of CK Hutchison
people and companies. Onwards and
upwards!
“Without continual growth and progress,
such words as improvement, achievement,
and success have no meaning.” -Benjamin Franklin
