Speaking at the first anniversary of the ‘Young Icebreakers’ held at the Berkeley Hotel, London in May 2009, Mark Tucker, Group Chief Executive of Prudential plc, said:
“The initiative of the ‘Young Icebreakers’ exemplifies the best traditions of the 48 Group Club: bold and imaginative, but rooted in the pragmatism that is born of experience. ‘Young Icebreakers’ are truly among the best and brightest that China and the UK have to offer. But, more importantly, the relationships you are forming will point the way for China and for Britain and for an ever more interdependent world.”
Daniel Jacoel, Chairman of the ‘Young Icebreakers’ in the UK; Stephen Perry, Chairman of
the 48 Group Club; Madam Fu Ying, Chinese Ambassador to the UK; Mark Tucker, Group Chief
Executive of Prudential plc, and Jack Perry, Chairman of the ‘Young Icebreakers’, in China.
