Go China Overview

Soon to be the world’s biggest economy, China cannot be ignored. In particular, the Yangtse River Delta, including Shanghai, Hangzhou, and Nanjing, is China’s most technologically advanced region, representing a quarter of China’s GDP, with a highly integrated cross-border innovation ecosystem. Across virtually all major hi-tech markets, from digital to healthcare to cleantech, this region is becoming both a huge technology consumer and innovator. However, along with immense opportunity, China also presents many unique challenges that need understanding and guidance. Proper research, planning, partnering, and patience are the keys to success.

We are looking for a few serious high growth hi-tech businesses with strong China market motivation and potential. Using webinars, coaching, matchmaking, and an extended visit, the 3-stage Go China programme is designed to help companies develop strategies and business models to successfully navigate this fast-changing business landscape. Along the way we will help companies assess their China market opportunity and readiness, build strong partnerships, and avoid common pitfalls.
