Speaker 讲座嘉宾

Zhang Xin co-founded SOHO China in 1995. As CEO, she has led the company to become one of the largest developers of prime office real estate in China. SOHO China has developed over 5.5 million square meters (60 million square feet) in projects in Beijing and Shanghai. Her collaborations with world-renowned architects have resulted in iconic landmark buildings that transformed Chinese skylines. In 2014 SOHO China launched “SOHO 3Q” pioneering the concept of coworking in China. SOHO 3Q is China’s largest operator of coworking space.

Born in Beijing in 1965, Zhang Xin moved to Hong Kong at the age of 14, where she worked as a factory girl for five years. Determined to pursue higher education, she made her way to England where she earned a Bachelor’s degree in Economics from Sussex University and a Master’s degree in Development Economics from Cambridge University.

After working in investment banking at Goldman Sachs and Travelers Group, she returned to Beijing to co-found SOHO China with her husband Pan Shiyi. In 2007, SOHO China was successfully listed on the Stock Exchange of Hong Kong raising proceeds of USD $1.9 billion, Asia’s largest commercial real estate IPO to date.

Xin’s rags-to-riches story has embodied the rise of China’s entrepreneurship, earning her prestige internationally. She sits on the Global Board of Advisors at the Council on Foreign Relations, and is also a member of the Harvard Global Advisory Council. Active on Weibo, China’s “twitter”, where she has over 10 million followers, Xin frequently shares her views on business, current affairs and architecture.

Xin is deeply involved in philanthropy. In 2005 she and her husband Pan Shiyi established the SOHO China Foundation, a charity organization that promotes education to improve social mobility. In 2014, the SOHO China Foundation launched the SOHO China Scholarships, a USD $100 million initiative providing financial aid for Chinese students at leading international universities. Gift agreements totaling USD $25 million have been signed with Harvard and Yale University. The Scholarships currently supports more than 30 Chinese students pursuing undergraduate degrees at the partner universities.

Zhang Xin and her husband Pan Shiyi are also committed to promoting environmental causes. In 2015, they joined the Breakthrough Energy Coalition spearheaded by Bill Gates to fund technology developments that will enable a zero-emissions energy future.

张欣女士1965年生于北京，14岁到香港一间工厂工作了五年后赴英国求学。她从塞萨克斯大学获得经济学士学位，后于剑桥大学获得发展经济学硕士学位。毕业后张欣女士就职于高盛以及华尔街投资银行旅行家集团，不久后回到北京与丈夫潘石屹先生创立SOHO中国。2007年，SOHO中国成功在香港上市融资19亿美金，是亚洲商业地产公司中迄今为止最大的首次公开发行。在20年中SOHO中国已成长为总资产超过百亿美金的大型企业。张欣女士与潘石屹先生目前也是中国最有影响力的企业家夫妇。

张欣女士成功的企业家形象和个人奋斗史使她成为国际上公认的中国经济发展的符号性人物。她是美国外交协会顾问委员会和哈佛大学全球顾问委员会的成员。作为微博名人，她拥有1000万粉丝，并经常在微博上分享她对商业、时事和建筑的观点。

张欣女士一直投身于慈善公益事业。她与潘石屹先生在2005年创建了SOHO中国基金会，旨在通过创造教育机会提升社会流动性。

在2014年，SOHO中国基金会启动了金额达1亿美元的SOHO中国助学金项目，以资助中国学生到世界一流大学深造。目前基金会已经与哈佛大学和耶鲁大学签署总额为2500万美金的捐赠协议，助学金目前支持30多位中国学生在哈佛大学和耶鲁大学进修本科学位。
