China+ Drive sales in China with e-commerce & the policy makers

18 October 2018 (this event has ended) Leeds

China+: Forum with China's E-commerce Policy Makers

This event has completed. Thank you to all the participants!

This is a unique opportunity for representatives from private sector to meet with delegates from China’s principal government agency — CIECC (Ministry of Commerce) that is responsible for the implementation of Internet+ initiatives. The delegates will be on their annual visit to Ireland and England, forging links with organisations and businesses that want to expand their digital presence in China.

This is an exclusive forum – number of attendees that we can accommodate is limited.

China’s e-commerce market accounts for over 40% of the global e-commerce transactions. China’s cross-border e-commerce transactions (including retail and B2B) reached ¥6.7 trillion yuan ($1.01 trillion) in 2016 and increased significantly to ¥7.6 trillion in 2017. For 2018, that figure will likely jump to ¥9 trillion.

Meet China’s E-commerce Policy Makers

Business leaders have a unique chance to meet with delegates from China International Electronic Commerce Centre (CIECC / 中国国际电子商务中心), a principal government agency operating under the Ministry of Commerce of the People’s Republic of China.

CIECC develops and implements digital information projects and initiatives; facilitating international cooperation and exchange in the e-commerce sector at the state level.

We’ve carved a few hours out of their busy schedule to give businesses of all sizes an opportunity to participate in this forum. ACOLINK LTD is the CIECC’s UK strategic partner.
