The European Chamber Nanjing is pleased to invite you join the factory tour to Phoenix Contact (China) Holding Co., Ltd. and discussion on The Localization of International Companies in the Digital Age.

So far, globalization is the best path for the survival and development of enterprises, the best mechanism for technological innovation and knowledge dissemination, and one of the best ways for investors to obtain the best returns. Through internationalization, enterprises can enhance their strength, enhance their anti-risk ability, promote and upgrade their transformation and upgrading, thus becoming the industry leader. However, in the new global context, internationalization is facing more severe challenges of risk management and control. The internationalization layout of enterprises should not only consider the global resource advantage and benefit maximization of the whole value chain, but also meet the needs of various countries for public health, national security, employment, wealth distribution and even politics. Sometimes, they must make concessions in cost-effectiveness, and transform into a new model feature: localization of global supply, namely Glocal. Phoenix Contact (China) Holding Co., Ltd has successfully developed into the best example of “Glocal” company. We would delightedly invite Chinese and Foreign companies leader to participate in the factory tour to Phoenix Contact, one of “the most Chinese style” German company and to an in-depth discussion with Mr. Gu Jiandang, President of Phoenix Contact.

迄今为止，全球化是已知的企业生存发展和人类共享文明的最好路径，是技术创新和知识传播的最好机制，也是投资者获得最佳回报的方式之一。企业通过国际化增强实力、提升抗风险能力、促进转型升级，进而成为行业领军者。然而，在新的全球背景下，国际化正遭遇更加严峻的风险管控的挑战。企业国际化布局不仅要考虑整个价值链上的全球资源优势和效益最大化，也必须满足各国对于公共卫生和国家安全、就业、财富分配乃至政治需求，有时必须在成本效益方面做出让步，蜕变出新模式特点：全球供应的本土化和属地化，即GloCal，这必将对企业国际化经营管理和战略部署的方方面面产生影响。为此，我们邀请您到“最中国的德国企业”菲尼克斯电气中国公司，与总裁顾建党先生共同探讨这一话题，希望碰撞出的思想火花可以点亮刚刚开始的2021年。
