太古集團於2020年慶祝在香港營運第一百五十年,但當年這個始創於利物浦、專營歐美貿易的小公司,何以會千里迢迢跑到香港,並且在此大展拳腳落地生根?畢可思教授會透過介紹他的新作,為我們解答以上問題。

In 2020 the Swire Group marked its 150th anniversary of operating in Hong Kong. But why did this small company, originally established in Liverpool, and involved in the trade between Britain and North America, come to Hong Kong, and how did it grow and stay there. Robert Bickers will introduce his book about the company’s history and discuss these questions.
