TEN expats who have made contributions to the city were honoured at the 2015 Shanghai International Excellence Award Ceremony held at K11 over the weekend.

It’s the second international excellence award jointly launched by Shanghai Daily and the International Channel Shanghai (ICS). Present at Saturday’s ceremony were foreign diplomats, city government officials and many others.

After a month-long vote in which over 10 million online ballots were cast, 10 expats were selected from the 30-plus candidates, including business leaders, community event organizers, charity activists and opinion leaders.
