Hosted at the British Ambassadorial Residence in Beijing, the patrons and committee of the Thomas Wade Society (TWS) invite alumni and current Cambridge students of Chinese studies, as well as friends of the Chinese Faculty, for cocktails and canapés at their inaugural China event on Friday, 11 May.

TWS was founded in 2009 as the University of Cambridge Chinese Studies Alumni Society. Until 2016 the society was dormant, when the Class of 2016 decided to rebuild the society into something new that could bring faculty members, alumni and friends of the faculty together. While emphatically an Alumni society, and restricted in that sense, it sees the promotion of the study of China, Chinese language and building links with the region as a key goal. TWS not only hopes to establish and maintain a strong relationship between the Faculty of Chinese and its alumni, but also wishes to bring together people with an interest in China and encourage, or even enable, graduates of Chinese to pursue work in or related to China.
