Greek Traditions and New Connections: The LSA Club Launches in Bangkok

On the evening of April 24, 2024, at Aesops Greek Restaurant & Rooftop Bangkok, The LSA Club held its launch event, presented by Lifestyle Asia Thailand, marking a significant moment for expats, entrepreneurs, and Thai internationals. The event, which was co-hosted by Charlie Withayachamnankul, was a captivating mix of networking, inspiration, and entertainment.  

The programme began with BurdaLuxury’s CEO, Björn Rettig and Regional Director of Communications and Corporate Development, Director of Masterclass and Personal Branding, Venita Prommaporn, taking to the stage to share their vision for The LSA Club. They emphasised the club’s mission to foster connections and create opportunities for its members in Thailand, stressing the importance of community and collaboration.  

The evening was followed by engaging speeches from industry leaders. George Hartel, Chief Commercial & Development Officer at GQ Apparel, Thailand led the keynote with a discussion on how to build a high-performance team in Thailand.
