<strong>Sabrina</strong> <strong>Ho</strong> <strong>Chiu</strong> <strong>Yeng</strong> - <strong>Director</strong> <strong>and</strong><br />

<strong>CEO</strong><br />

<strong>Sabrina</strong> <strong>Ho</strong> <strong>Chiu</strong> <strong>Yeng</strong> is <strong>Director</strong> <strong>and</strong> <strong>CEO</strong> of Poly Auction Macau Limited, founder <strong>and</strong><br />

Managing <strong>Director</strong> of <strong>Chiu</strong> <strong>Yeng</strong> Culture Limited <strong>and</strong> member of the Committee of Cultural<br />

Industries of the Federal government of Macao SAR.<br />

She is the eldest Stanley ho daughter <strong>and</strong> Angela Leong On-Kei, person in the Macau Legislative<br />

Council, Managing <strong>Director</strong> <strong>and</strong> Chief Administrative Official of gaming operator Sociedade de<br />

Jogos de Macau, S. A..<br />

Born twenty four September 1990, <strong>Ho</strong> received the very best international education. She<br />

attended main school in <strong>Ho</strong>ng Kong, spent a year at St. Hilda's School for girls on Australia's<br />

Yellow metal Coast, <strong>and</strong> went to secondary school at Queen Margaret's boarding school in<br />

Yorkshire, Engl<strong>and</strong>.<br />

Growing in the shadow of her parents' legacy, <strong>Ho</strong> always experienced some pressure to find her<br />

own path <strong>and</strong> succeed in her own right. Her passion for art <strong>and</strong> painting motivated her to branch<br />

out from the family business in gambling <strong>and</strong> pursue her dreams in the art world. "My parents<br />

always understood this was my way. I used to draw on the tables <strong>and</strong> on the walls <strong>and</strong> ruin all the<br />

furniture. My love for art <strong>and</strong> culture was always there, " the lady laughs. She graduated in 2013<br />

with a Bachelor of Arts Degree from the University of Hk.<br />

In 2015, <strong>Ho</strong> began managing the Regency <strong>Ho</strong>tel Macau, re-br<strong>and</strong>ing it into Regency Art <strong>Ho</strong>tel, a<br />

skill hotel that provided a space where imagination <strong>and</strong> hospitality co-existed. "Our family<br />

attained the Regency, <strong>and</strong> it needed a makeover. Revamping a hotel is more difficult than<br />

creating it from scratch. <strong>Ho</strong>wever , I actually saw the ideal spot to make a space that provides<br />

young local creators an chance to exhibit their work <strong>and</strong> those thinking about artwork the chance<br />

to see something different, " she says.<br />

October of that same year, <strong>Sabrina</strong> ho chiu yeng founded <strong>Chiu</strong> <strong>Yeng</strong> Culture Limited, a company<br />

that promotes Macau's creativeness <strong>and</strong> organises fine art auctions through Poly Public sale<br />

Macau Limited, a business she co-founded with Poly Public sale <strong>Ho</strong>ng Kong. The first auction<br />

was held in January 2016, with sales of HK$ 245 million.
