Virun Lertpanyawai is a Bangkok-based jazz lover and entrepreneur who founded the versatile music venue Sweets in 2012.

Since 2014, Lertpanyawai and Sweets have presented International Jazz Day celebrations each year in locations around the city spanning a variety of themes and styles, from dixieland to hot jazz to big band. "Jazz is an international language and jazz people are lovely people," says Lertpanyawai. "It can drive and motivate people to do some amazing things, even World Peace. Just open your heart and try this kind of art and music."Read More
