When he joined his family’s real estate business after university, Edwin Pun could not have predicted that, just over ten years later, he would be overseeing the opening of a new Hello Kitty theme park. One of six children in the Pun clan, the 35-year-old has risen to become director of the family’s half-century-old business, Keyestone Group, founded by his father Benson Pun in 1970.

Born and raised in Hong Kong, Edwin Pun is often seen rubbing shoulders with the city’s tycoons at galas, product launches and art exhibitions. Despite a social diary that would exhaust most, Pun’s primary focus is his work, which luckily incorporates some of his greatest passions.
