The Shanghai Appreciation Dinner, only happening every 2 years, is a prime opportunity for the business community to celebrate the European Chamber’s 20-year anniversary and the key role that companies play in Shanghai’s Economic recovery post COVID-19. It is also an opportunity to celebrate the close partnership between the European Union and the city of Shanghai.

In the previous dinners, we brought together more than 60 local government officials and a total of 250 participants. Leaders of the Shanghai Municipal Government and various government department leaders, including the Shanghai Municipal Commerce Commission, Shanghai DRC, Shanghai Customs as well as the EU Ambassador to China and EU Consuls General met over a business dinner in a unique atmosphere.

This year again, the European Chamber Shanghai is honoured to welcome Ambassador Nicolas Chapuis, Head of Delegation of the European Union to the People's Republic of China and Mongolia as guest of honour.

During these past eight months, the Chairs of the working group overcame difficulties and led the WG to make things happen: the drafting of the Shipbuilding Position Paper was realised, a call with EU DG-Trade counterparts in Brussels discussing the high tech supply chain was initiated, lobby actions advocating for business restart in cruise were taken and comments on the European Commission’s White Paper on Foreign Subsidies has been submitted. To see through our end goal of establishing a level playing field and build a platform for strong EU-China cooperation, more advocacies will need to be carried out in the second half of the year, and we are especially looking forward to the EU-China Shipbuilding Dialogue later this year. In order to realise WG members’ expectation, we would like to meet you and invite you to share your experience, your ideas and perspectives, but most of all to meet each other and have fun.

Let this be an evening to celebrate our commitment and support for each other!

Earlier this year China’s Ministry of Justice released new amendments to specify how foreign nationals can apply for permanent residency (PR) in the country. To help expatriates both interpret the changes in regulation and correctly implement them, this event guides foreign passport holders in the Shanghai Municipality through the green card application process, from eligibility requirements and global tax implications to financial planning solutions for PR applicants.

The European Chamber is pleased to welcome Ray Xia and Gertie Chen of PwC China Global Mobility Services and Jordan Donald of Infinity Solutions to provide insights into and share best practices about the above mentioned. Join us 24th August, 16:00-17:15 (GMT+8), online via zoom or in-person at our Shanghai office.
