Simpplr, leading provider of employee experience, today announced multi-award winning actor, activist and Marvel Studios breakout superhero, Simu Liu as it’s keynote speaker for Cohesion 2022, which will take place October 17-19 at the Ritz Carlton in San Francisco.

Liu is best known for his feature debut as the title hero in Marvel Studios' Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings. Shang-Chi broke box office records on its release and became the second-highest-grossing film of the pandemic era. Before his motion picture breakout, Liu filmed five seasons of the award-winning CBC/Netflix family sitcom Kim's Convenience, which chronicled the lives of a Korean-Canadian family that owned a bodega in the inner city of Toronto. He is also a passionate advocate for mental health awareness and LGBTQ+ rights.

As a writer, Liu has contributed think pieces and editorials to publications such as Variety, Character Magazine, USA Today, and Macleans. His family memoir We Were Dreamers: An Immigrant Superhero Origin Story, detailing his family's journey from Harbin, China to Hollywood, California, will release worldwide on May 17 through HarperCollins and William Morrow.

"Simu is an incredible role model whose personal story in breaking barriers and advocacy for inclusivity embodies what Cohesion 2022 is all about." said Dhiraj Sharma, Co-Founder and CEO of Simpplr. “The employee experience landscape has shifted dramatically over the past few years and now organizations benefit by redefining their strategy towards the well-being of employees. We hope that Simu’s experience throughout his personal life and career will help professionals build a better future.”
