With his strong background and experience, particularly in digital, TBWA Beijing’s chief executive officer Paul Lee said Chan will help build TBWA into one of the strongest, fully integrated agencies in Beijing. 

Chan started his career in advertising 17 years ago, and has worked with agencies such as Saatchi & Saatchi, D’Arcy, McCann Erikson, FCB and Grey. He was most recently executive creative director at BBDO Beijing.

Since 2003, Chan has worked in China for multinational clients and local clients in Beijing, Shanghai, Qingdao and Guangzhou.

Ian Thubron, group president of TBWA Greater China, said, “TBWA is one of the most creative companies in the world and it’s important that China contributes to this position, as well as benefits from the reflected glory. So it’s crucial that we hire only the very best talent, and Danny is amongst the most recognised CDs in Beijing.”
