SHENYANG, China, May 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Recently, the “Show Your Chinese Talents—International Interactive Communication Project for International Students in Liaoning to Display Chinese Talents”, planned by the Liaoning International Communication Center in China, has been officially launched. The project focuses on “Generation Z” international students in Liaoning Province, seeking out “foreign talents” from all over the world who have mastered traditional Chinese arts through active learning. Their learning experiences, achievements, and sharing of Chinese culture are recorded via short videos, showcasing the unique charm of China’s excellent traditional culture in an all-round way.

Young students from various countries studying in Liaoning not only learn Chinese language and specialized knowledge but also have a strong passion for traditional Chinese culture in their daily learning. Universities in the province have elaborately designed traditional Chinese cultural courses for international students, such as Beijing (or Peking) Opera, Chinese calligraphy and Taiji (or Tai Chi), and cultivated plenty of “foreign talents”. The project hunts for international students who are nationally representative, and have superb Chinese talents, and selects excellent traditional Chinese cultural projects for filming and promotion, such as Chinese martial arts, guqin (a seven-stringed zither), Beijing Opera and Chinese calligraphy. The cultural projects boast Liaoning’s distinctive regional characteristics, and fully reflect the essence of Chinese culture, drawing the active participation of young people from all over the world.

Featuring international students in Liaoning, the short videos unfold the grace of traditional Chinese culture from the perspective of “Generation Z”, comprehensively revealing the international communication value of traditional Chinese culture, and fostering a deeper understanding of Chinese culture among overseas viewers.

The series of short videos, all shot in full 4K high definition, has been released, presenting viewers with a visual feast that is stylish, profound and memorable. After being posted on overseas social media platforms, the videos have attracted young people from all over the world to admire Chinese culture and experience the integration and harmony of diverse cultures together. This has further aroused a new understanding and perception of “a community with a shared future for mankind”.

LONDON, May 8, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Gautam Sahgal, former CEO of leading employee engagement platform Perkbox, has partnered with CSMA to invest in and further develop Parliament Hill, the UK’s leading provider of membership association benefits platforms.

As part of this strategic partnership, Gautam Sahgal and CSMA will jointly invest in the continued growth of Parliament Hill, focusing on advancing its technology, expanding its commercial offering, and scaling its impact across the membership sector.

Gautam Sahgal, Executive Chairman of Parliament Hill, said:

“CSMA acquired Parliament Hill in 2018 and we’re thrilled to partner with Gautam and Joel to invest further in its future. With the right leadership, resources, and strategy, we’re confident Parliament Hill will become an even stronger force in the membership space.”
