China
What is the China programme of activity?
China is set to become the world’s largest economy. The development of this major economic powerhouse offers significant opportunities for Essex businesses and ExDRA is leading on activity to make positive business connections between the Region and China.
A close relationship between Essex and Jiangsu Province (bordering Shanghai, on the thriving east coast of China) has developed over the last 18 years. This was made possible through Essex County Council and the Provincial Government of Jiangsu working closely on a variety of activities that has included trade missions and educational exchanges.
ExDRA is developing the economic dimension of this relationship, advising key business sectors on its market potential and promoting inward investment from China, alongside Essex County Council, East of England International and the China Britain Business Council. The Agency has China experts based in-house in Chelmsford, including a trade representative from the Jiangsu Department for Foreign Trade and Economic Co-Operation plus a representative office in Nanjing City, in the heart of the booming Yangtze River Delta area.
Latest news and events regarding the China programme of activity is detailed below.
