New management for Messe Munchen Shanghai

The chief executive of Messe München Shanghai, Edwin Tan, left the company by mutual consent at the end of July owing to what the company has called “differing views on the future strategic goals”. He has been replaced by Xu Jia, who has been the company’s chief operating officer since 2013.

Messe München Shanghai is the largest subsidiary that Messe München has. Events it organises include ISPO Shanghai, which will next take place in July 2020.

Ms Jia will form a new senior management team with Stephen Lu as chief operating officer and Candace Hua as chief financial officer.
