Industry concentration in special parks and enforcement of environmental and safety regulations are leading to an increasing number of company relocations. Continuity of operations and an economically viable transition process are the most critical issues for most affected enterprises. But each relocation is also a real estate deal. Our speakers will outline the Chinese legal framework, and share practical experiences with relocations at various locations.
However, ordering companies to halt their production line is a costly endeavor. Join us in this seminar to learn from experts in the field who are dealing directly with these cases in China.
