The countries of Europe & China are increasingly integrating together economically, logistically and politically via China's Belt & Road initiative.
China’s Belt and Road (B&R) initiative is a global connectivity program of USD 1 trillion or more, focused on infrastructure development across East and Central Asia, the subcontinent, Africa and Europe, encompassing 68 countries. It goes beyond roads and ports, to include airports, power plants, pipelines, waste and water management facilities and telecommunications. It will have an impact on a population of about 4.4 billion and one third of the global economy. Foreign companies based in China wonder how to be involved in this unprecedented scale project. Join us for a joint chambers seminar organized by European Chamber of Commerce, French Chamber of Commerce, BenCham (the Benelux Chamber of Commerce) and PwC.
