What do the figures say, what does practice say? What does the Benelux Business Survey reveal?<\/strong><\/p>\n

How do Benelux companies experience doing business in China? Where are the opportunities, what challenges do they encounter and how do they see the future of their activities in the Chinese market?<\/p>\n

During the next China Caf\u00e9 on October 8 in Eindhoven, we will dive into the results of the Sino Benelux Business Survey, conducted by MSA Asia and Benelux Chamber of Commerce. A valuable indicator of the business climate in China, based on the experiences and expectations of companies that operate there on a daily basis.<\/p>\n

But what do the figures really tell us? And how do the results relate to the experiences of entrepreneurs and financial experts in practice?<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Jonathan Xu of Benelux Chamber of Commerce and Brian Bl\u00f6mer, Partner at MSA Advisory Asia, present the key findings of the study. Then, two survey participants bring the numbers to life with their own experiences: Mathijs de Boer, International Desk Manager Asia at Rabobank, and Tianhao Hu, Head of Financial Control at Rituals (subject to change).<\/p>\n

The Chinese government also has its say. Jin Yuan, Economic & Commercial Councellor of the Chinese Embassy, reflects on the results from the perspective of the Chinese government. How does China view the concerns and expectations of foreign companies? And what developments could influence the future business environment?<\/p>\n

A fascinating meeting in which research results, practical experiences and the Chinese government perspective come together. With plenty of room for questions, discussion and exchanging experiences.<\/p>\n

Are you active in the Chinese market, are you considering doing business with China or do you want to better understand how the business climate is developing? Then you can’t miss this China Caf\u00e9!<\/span><\/p>\n
