Now Shenzhen | October 30, 2023
Dear Shenzhen-er,
Happy to say I'm mostly recovered from the costumed debauchery I partook over over the weekend. A shout out to the folks at Bunco, Baia, Revolucion Cocktail and Oil for their efforts in putting together halloween inspired evenings. A nod of the hat to Pandora Parties for their efforts in pulling off their 7th annual "Lost Realm" halloween party on Saturday.
This weeks local news cycle had the following article that caught my attention this morning: Happy Valley - unhappily - reported a minor roller coaster accident over the weekend that left 28 people injured. The Longhua International Cooperation Center (LICC) with it's AI-powered assistant has opened its doors in Longhua, and Shenzhen Airport will be opening up more international flight routes from today! Read the full articles for all the details!
A few Halloween events are continuing through to the actual holiday on the 31st. Aside from that have a look at our full events page on the website to find other activities for this week. Weather is looking good this week so if you fancy a hike or a day trip to the beach this week would be a good time. Zack's Shenzhen Marketing meetup it's having it's final meetup of the year on November 8th - again our highest recommendation if you're in the digital marketing / ecommerce space and would like to make new connections. Get in touch with me directly if you'd like to attend that one.
Take it easy this week folks!
