With the aim to better understand the specificities of the Chinese market and the possibilities of entering it, the EU SME Centre, Eurochambres and SPIRIT Slovenia, are organising a ‘Capacity Building Webinar Series’ aiming at increasing the awareness and understanding of doing business in China for European SMEs.
During the 5 webinar sessions, various China experts from different areas of expertise will present the cultural peculiarities, the market entry strategies, the challenges related to logistics and the distribution channels and the importance of digital marketing in China.
It is undeniable that China offers many opportunities to European entrepreneurs. However, it is essential to be aware of the possible challenges and pitfalls in order to be able to objectively gauge if China is or is not the right market for your product(s). Our experts will make a realistic assessment of the status quo pinpointing the trends that will shape the future of this huge market while sharing practical tips on what to consider when entering the Chinese market.
