Cost management remains a prominent concern for foreign businesses operating in China in 2023, especially for manufacturers and SMEs facing economic uncertainties and tax-related challenges.

In this seminar, the European Chamber Nanjing Chapter is pleased to invite Shirley Chu, Manager with Tax Advisory Service team and Simon Laube, Assistant Manager with the International Business Advisory team, at Dezan Shira & Associates, to share valuable insights on cost control solutions from tax, HR, and business perspectives, with a particular focus on China-specific tax avoidance arrangements and workforce optimization.

The government affairs (GA) work of enterprises is often compared to “building a rainbow bridge of communication and cooperation between the government and enterprises”. In fact, for the GA departments of multi-national companies (MNCs), the “external communication” with Chinese government agencies only accounts for half of their daily work, while the other half of GA work, the “internal communication” within the company, is the basic guarantee and core power to determine the effectiveness of “external communication” work, and the full understanding and cooperation of the enterprises’ senior managements and the heads of various business departments is of great significance for promoting the smooth development of GA and giving full play to the value of GA function.
