Mr. Song Chaoxue, President of SW China received National Honour for Leadership and Contribution to Economic Development

Mr. Song Chaoxue, President of SW China, has been recognised as one of China’s Top 100 Outstanding Leaders from the private and new economy sector. This prestigious national award is jointly presented by five Chinese government ministries and honours individuals who have made exceptional contributions to the country’s economic and social progress.

Selected from a wide range of industries, Mr. Song is the only awardee from the accountancy profession among this year’s 100 honourees, reflecting his influential role in elevating professional standards, driving innovation and promoting sustainable growth.

This milestone continues SW’s legacy of leadership and influence under Mr. Zhang Ke, Chairman of SW International, who received the same national honour in 2014. It reinforces SW’s on-going commitment to professional excellence, integrity and public trust in China and beyond.

The award was presented at the 6th National Recognition Conference in Beijing, organised by key governmental departments including the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security and other key national departments of the People’s Republic of China. The award is one of the highest distinctions given to entrepreneurs and professionals in China and is conferred every five years.

The achievement marks a significant personal milestone for Mr. Song and also highlights SW China’s long-standing dedication to integrity, professionalism and public service. SW China has now grown into one of Asia’s most respected professional services firms, known for its deep expertise, forward-looking approach and focus on building long-term value for clients and stakeholders.

Our SW network remains committed to supporting high-quality, responsible growth across markets, enhancing trust in financial reporting and helping businesses navigate an increasingly complex global economic landscape.
