About Hurun Report
Founded in 1999 by Rupert Hoogewerf, Hurun Report began with a belief: that the stories of entrepreneurs and wealth-creators deserve to be told with rigor, integrity and nuance.
Over nearly three decades, Hurun has evolved into a leading global research, media, and events organisation — anchored by the Hurun Research Institute, complemented by our digital media platforms and a vibrant events arm.
We publish a suite of benchmark “lists” and research products that have become the de facto reference points for wealth creation, entrepreneurship, philanthropy, innovation and culture. From the flagship Hurun China Rich List to global rankings such as the Hurun Global Rich List, the Hurun Global Unicorn Index, and sector-specific indices, we chart the world’s dynamic wealth and value-creation landscape.
Today, Hurun reaches billions of people globally — affirming our role not just as chronicler but as amplifier of entrepreneurial success, innovation, and social impact. According to our data, the Hurun brand registered approximately 8 billion views across online and offline platforms in the most recent measurement period.
Our mission remains consistent: promoting entrepreneurship through lists and research — shining a spotlight on those creating value, shaping economies, and contributing to society.
About Hurun Australasia
In 2019, responding to a growing need to connect Asia’s wealth-creation narrative with the rest of the world, we launched Hurun Australasia — our regional platform based in Sydney, Australia.
Hurun Australasia extends the global mission of Hurun, refracted through the lens of this region’s vibrant mix of multicultural talent, innovation, philanthropy and emerging entrepreneurial spirit. Our aim is to connect and empower: giving founders, innovators, artists and changemakers of Australasia a voice, a network, and a bridge to the broader international stage.
Since launch, Hurun Australasia has worked to:
Bring global visibility to Australasia’s entrepreneurs, innovators and private companies, situating them within global benchmark lists where relevant.
Provide curated regional research, analysis and insights that map how wealth creation, philanthropy, innovation and investment flows evolve in Australasia and how they intersect with global trends.
Host events, conversations and forums to connect regional change-makers with global counterparts — amplifying impact, cross-pollination and collaboration.
Support next-generation talent through initiative programmes that reflect Hurun’s commitment to future creators, not just established wealth.
Through Hurun Australasia, we believe in embedding Australasia’s evolving story — of creativity, value creation, impact, culture — within the global narrative.
