Doing business in China workshop – Leeds

We invite companies across the Northern Powerhouse both with existing interest in China looking to refresh their skills and those at an early stage of China market entry to join us in Leeds for a workshop on doing business in China.

  • Date: 1 March 2023
  • Time: 12:00 to 2:30 (GMT)
  • Location: Work Café Santander, Leeds

China has opened its borders for international travel. After three years of travel restrictions, UK SMEs have the opportunity to reengage and start developing face-to-face relationships with Chinese counterparts and progress growth plans in the world’s second-largest economy.

For any company with international growth ambitions and an eye on China as a potential market for sales and/or supply, now is the time to equip your business with the latest knowledge, skills, and contacts to progress opportunities as China re-emerges as an attractive and accessible market for UK SMEs.

This session will be delivered as an interactive small group workshop in Leeds with Santander and the China-Britain Business Council. The objective is for all attendees to develop a deeper understanding of China’s business environment and culture so you can maximise outputs when engaging and progressing plans with Chinese counterparts.

By attending, you will be equipped with:

  • Increased understanding of China, Chinese culture, and its influence on doing business.
  • Confidence and effectiveness in communicating and maintaining relationships with Chinese counterparts.
  • Tactics to identify and progress opportunities in China, whilst protecting your business against common risks.
  • Knowledge of the support available for business exploring trading opportunities in China and beyond.

We welcome companies across all sectors in the Northern Powerhouse with an existing or potential interest in China to attend.
