What do you need to consider to succeed internationally and in China?
How can Innovation Norway assist?
After many years of manufacturing growth in China, a shift is now underway. The new and modern China is creating new opportunities for those who want to invest in the country. The Chinese middle class is now larger than the American one. China is also the world's largest internet nation with over 650 million daily users. China is moving from centralized control and state capitalism to a more market-driven economy, from a focus on exports to an orientation towards domestic consumption, and from volume to quality and more sustainable production.
The event is free of charge but for catering purposes we ask for your registration.
Welcome!
