Han Chiang is the CEO of Orange Gibbon and one of the pioneers bringing Meeting Design into Asia. She challenges outdated meeting culture by helping organisations turn passive sessions into energising, outcome-driven experiences.
With a strong belief in people-first collaboration, Han helps companies design meetings where participants engage, contribute, and create real results. Her work combines strategy, creativity, and the Orange Gibbon spirit of Serious Fun.
Known for her international perspective and practical style, Han is helping leaders across Asia rethink what meetings can be—more human, more effective, and far more memorable.
