Dear SME Forum Members,

The next SME Forum meeting is scheduled to take place on Monday 19th October in Shanghai. Next to the sharing of an important announcement regarding the leadership of the Forum, the meeting will revolve around recent developments in visa regulations with a particular focus on SME enterprises.

Following recent regulatory developments, it is expected that a select number of regulations surrounding the hiring of skilled foreign staff will be somewhat relaxed. Still, hurdles in hiring foreign talents remain and the rapid pace of development in visa regulations make it hard to keep up for even the most in-tune HR professionals. Will foreign-owned SMEs stand to benefit? To help clarify these issues we will have the pleasure to welcome Ms. Tina Li, Senior Associate at Taylor Wessing to present an overview of the latest in Visa Legislation and other Developments along the lines of a case study, as well as Ms. Rosanna Terminio, Managing Partner at Asecorp China who will share an analysis of the costs and benefits of hiring foreign staff in Shanghai.
