The University of Nottingham Malaysia is proud to host 'Nottingham in the City' - an exclusive panel discussion and professional networking event for Nottingham alumni and business contacts.

The University has successfully hosted similar events in London at prestigious company venues including Standard and Poor's, Berenberg Bank and PwC, but this is the first time the 'Nottingham in the City' has been held outside the UK.

With over 30 years' hands-on experience, Dr Tan is involved in a diverse range of businesses in Malaysia and other countries including financial services, property development, hospitality, oil palm plantations, maritime industries, and infrastructures.
