May 6th, 2024, the European Chamber Nanjing Chapter held its Annual General Meeting in Kempinski Hotel. This event gathered around 90 attendees from members, government officials, and media.
During the meeting, the chamber's president Jens Eskelund and the CMG's senior analyst Zheng Zhou shared the key findings of the report Riskful Thinking: Navigating the Politics of Economic Security. “While it is natural that all global actors will seek to ensure the security of their respective economies, it should be done in a way that is minimally disruptive to business,” said Jens Eskelund, “Actions taken in the name of risk management and strengthening economic security should be proportionate, targeted and precise and should never become a cover for protectionism.” Then a panel discussion which moderated by Dr Andreas Risch, Board chair of European Chamber Nanjing has been followed. 3 Panelists from Sharehouse Nanjing, emz Hanauer (Nanjing) Co.,Ltd., and AXA Tianping Insurance Sales Co., Ltd. Jiangsu Branch shared their insights as their industry perspective.
