We would love to hear your feedback, and it just takes a minute.
The US in June imposed tariffs on China, primarily targeting industries supported by China’s ambitious Made in China 2025 (MiC 2025) strategy. Meanwhile, China has announced the latest multi-billion-dollar MiC 2025 fund to support new technologies in emerging industries. These developments signal a growing confrontation over MiC 2025, an industrial policy launched in 2015 aimed at upgrading Chinese manufacturing capacity and making China into a manufacturing superpower over the next decade through “localisation”, innovation and acquisition of advanced technologies.
MiC 2025 raises many questions for companies on how to remain competitive, in China and abroad. At the same time, both Chinese and foreign firms need to prepare for heightened political risk for MiC 2025 industries, which may raise political scrutiny and reputational risks, or scuttle investment deals entirely. Both foreign and Chinese companies need to catch up to new industrial and geopolitical realities, or risk being left behind in China’s industrial “new normal”.
During the seminar, the Chamber has invited guest speakers from three different companies to share their insights into the topic, including a risk consulting agency, a Chinese car manufacturing company and an international company of electromechanical equipment with design and manufacturing in China. After their presentation, there will be a roundtable discussion for all participating companies to exchange their opinions.
