Event Details

The EU-China Business Association, the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China, and Business Europe are delighted to invite you to the 'European Business in China: Position Paper 2022/2023' launch.


This webinar will be online on September 30, 2022, at 11:00 am.


This Position Paper of the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China is the culmination of nine months of dedicated work by 41 working groups and sub-working groups and forums. This year's Executive Position paper outlines, how over the last year, there has been a significant shift in focus at European companies' headquarters (HQs) when evaluating China.

By prioritizing ideology over economic concerns, China's business environment is becoming less predictable, reliable and efficient. While opportunities for European companies remain, they must now develop strategies to deal with an ever-growing list of risks stemming from both emerging legislationโ€”within and outside of Chinaโ€”and geopolitical developments. Join us to understand the key drivers behind these trends and their implications for European business.
