The European Union Chamber of Commerce in China and Roland Berger Strategy Consultants are delighted to invite you to the launch of the European Chamber Business Confidence Survey 2010 on Thursday 8th July at the Ritz-Carltton Hotel Guanghzhou.
Since 2004, the European Chamber has conducted an annual survey of member companies to monitor their views on the business environment and gather their opinions on trade and investment in China.
The European Chamber Business Confidence Survey 2010 is once again produced in partnership with Roland Berger Strategy Consultants, and draws on feedback from over 500 European companies – the highest participation rate ever. This year's survey offers a highly relevant insight on European business confidence in the Chinese market as it bounces back from the economic downturn.
The results – the most comprehensive and wide-ranging set of data yet gathered for this annual survey – will provide the most up-to-date and in-depth analysis on sentiment among European businesses about the Chinese business environment.
This information will have important implications for Chinese and European policy-makers, businesses, organizations as well as the general public.
Participants will receive a complimentary copy of the Survey Report at the event.
