In this event, we would like to invite you to listen to how Jiaxing authorities are trying to help the companies in their territory to stay as operational as possible - within the limits of their decision-making possibilities - creating a dialogue with the local companies in order to balance the goal of containment with the necessary goal of economic stability. We are stuck now in this situation, but no matter how long it could be, it’s temporary and we all know that the future growth is in China and Asia Pacific. Jiaxing, always a reliable city with a promising future.   EVENT DETAILS Date: May 27h, 2022 Time: 2:00-4:00 pm (Beijing Time) Method: Hybrid, both online and offline at Plainvim International Modern Industrial Park (Jiaxing) Co., Ltd.
