REASONS TO ATTEND

China's economy is growing at roughly 8% a year, easily outperforming G7 countries. If China sustained the past decade's growth in export volume it could generate a third of the world's exports by 2025, up from 6% today. The opportunity is there for major companies to establish a presence in China. However, operating in China is far more complex than setting up in Europe or America due to fundamental cultural differences and rapidly evolving laws and regulations.

Which is why we invite you to join your peers and key stakeholders for an in-depth, hands-on event that's dedicated to informing you on best practice and the latest developments in Corporate Responsibility policy adoption and implementation in China.

We are dedicated to delivering the right speakers and the right program to ensure that you take real business benefits back to your office:
