The China-Italy Chamber of Commerce in Guangzhou is pleased to invite you to the presentation of the `European Chamber Business Confidence Survey 2012` to be held in Guangzhou (June 5), Shenzhen (June 6) and Zhuhai (June 7), organised by the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China and the Roland Berger Strategy Consultants. • How many European companies are planning to expand their investments in China? • How many of them are considering moving their operations to nearby regions instead? • Are European companies succeeding in this increasingly competitive environment? • Is China still perceived as a strategic market or is losing momentum due to the financial crisis? These are some of the questions the European Chamber of Commerce in China has asked to its member companies. The survey was conducted in February 2012 and has taken place annually since 2004, allowing it to highlight patterns and examine the impact of the Chinese government policy and global economic trends. The results will provide the most up-to-date and in-depth analysis on sentiment among European businesses about the Chinese business environment, with a special mention to the PRD area. Do not miss this opportunity to meet the analysts behind the Survey and address your questions to some European business leaders. Participants will receive a complimentary copy of the Survey at this event. The presentation will be followed by a Business Luncheon (Guangzhou and Shenzhen) or Buffet Dinner (Zhuhai).
