What’s the best way to break into the Chinese market? What are the possibilities and pitfalls?
On Feb. 20, the Institute of the Americas and the Institute of Latin American Studies of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences (CASS) will convene experts from the Unites States, Latin America and China to discuss emerging business trends in China and Latin America.
This executive-level forum will focus on China-Americas business and trade, with a special emphasis on the role that the West Coast plays as a commercial mid-point between the two regions. Join us and hear from speakers from Beijing, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Caracas and well as business leaders and international researchers from Southern California.
