Presented by:

Doing Business in China

OCRI Global Marketing in partnership with Export Development Canada (EDC), Telfer School of Management and the Hong Kong Canada Business Association (HKCBA) invites you to join our Doing Business in China: Clean Technology breakfast seminar on September 16, 2009. Clean technology companies will be able to get a better understanding of the current economic climate in China, existing opportunities for Canadian companies, how to find business support and first hand experience of a company currently doing business in China.

There are over 65,000 factories in Mainland China owned by the Hong Kong enterprises. To meet the increasingly stringent regulatory regimes on environment protection in the global market, Hong Kong companies recognize the need to adopt clean manufacturing and new environmental technologies. In order to meet the environmental targets stipulated in its State's 11th Five-Year Plan (2006-2010), the Chinese government plans to spend $17 billion on environmental protection. This presents huge business opportunities for Canadian companies to use Hong Kong to access the China environmental market.
