The dinner event will take place on Friday, Nov. 20, at the Palace Hotel in San Francisco.
According to Mark C. Dosker, partner at Squire, Sanders & Dempsey, who serves as Cal-Asia's president, Paul Matthews is being honored for:
- his role in enabling American and other investors to readily participate in the long-term growth of Asia, and
- for helping to stimulate the development of Asian markets.
With over $10 billion in assets, Matthews International Capital Management is the Asia-dedicated investment specialist in the United States.
"Through their long-term investments," commented Bradley A. Aris, senior vice president at Wells Fargo-HSBC Trade Bank, who is serving as Asia Night chairman this year, "Paul and his team are helping build and strengthen Asian consumer markets and economies." He said the development of these markets "expands the opportunities in Asia for U.S. technology, manufacturing, agribusiness, environmental, entertainment, shipping and other sectors, and for the entire U.S. service sector."
Aris added that earlier this year, four of the economies in which Paul Matthews' firm invests--China, India, Indonesia and Vietnam--were among the handful in the world still experiencing GDP growth.
About 400 people, including executives of California companies doing business in Asia and their spouses and guests, will attend the Asia business networking dinner and award presentation.
Special guests will include Asian ambassadors, consuls general and commercial officers based in Washington, D.C. and San Francisco, said Aris. Countries expected include Brunei, China, India, Indonesia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, and Vietnam.
The gala will also feature a silent auction of Asian art objects and trans-Pacific airline and travel packages; an Asia-fusion dinner created especially for Asia Night; presentation of the award and Matthews' acceptance remarks; and entertainment. William L. (Bill) Lee, San Francisco's director of International Economic and Tourism Development, will emcee the event.
"California companies support Asia Night to expand their Asia-related business contacts, thank customers and clients, reward employees, and support the award-winning business-expansion programs of Cal-Asia," said Jeremy Potash, the group's executive director. She noted that the historic Palace Hotel, venue for Asia Night 2009, is now marking its centennial year.
The California-Asia Business Council (Cal-Asia) is California's non-profit, Asia-focused business association. Its mission is to help California firms develop or expand their commercial ties with Asia.
Matthews International Capital Management is the Investment Advisor to the Matthews Asia Funds.
