The next few weeks are packed with Canada China Business Council (CCBC) activity that I encourage people to attend -- I'll summarize here without individual links, detail at https://lnkd.in/g2KZejhp. 1. March 19 live in Vancouver + online we have an e-commerce seminar and B2B meetings with TMall Global (Alibaba). Canadian exports are in demand by Chinese consumers, lots of growth potential 2. March 22 at noon online is a valuable update on IP protection and China's ever-changing data regulations with Gowling WLG. I'm always surprised how many companies are NOT thinking about these issues and NOT adequately protecting their IP. Companies who do, find that China's IP laws are in their favor. 3. March 25 I will be in Vancouver with many members of CCBC's board. Join us for a networking lunch hosted by Teck Resources Limited. 4. Finally, we have two activities on China's Greater Bay Area Initiative: a) an in-person event in Toronto on March 27, with officials from Hong Kong, and b) a member outreach trip to HK, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen (April 13-17), to explore how Chinese and Canadian companies are leveraging the tech, innovation, financial services, and environmental growth policies of this rapidly integrating region. It's a small group, so if you want to join me, sign up asap!

Its office for Spain, Portugal, and Andorra is returning to the Catalan capital after a brief time in Madrid. This office represents the Hong Kong Trade Development Council for the Iberian Peninsula (HKTDC Spain), a private body linked to the economic fabric of a city that, after over 150 years of British colonial rule, has been considered a special administrative region of China since 1997. The Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) is a statutory body established in 1966 to promote, assist and develop Hong Kong’s trade. With 50 offices globally, including 13 in Mainland China, the HKTDC promotes Hong Kong as a two-way global investment and business hub. Judith Padros Rombouts and Ariadna Casasús, both with backgrounds in International Trade and many years dedicated to Asia, will lead the Barcelona office. They, along with David Baselga, are the partners of the company managing it. The timing of this relocation is particularly strategic, coming just before the new edition of the Mobile World Congress (MWC). Exploiting Barcelona's momentum in both trade fairs and technology is a key objective, along with building bridges with the biotech sector and the innovative ecosystem. Barcelona has long served as the gateway to the Iberian Peninsula for Asian companies. China's commitment to revitalizing Hong Kong is unwavering. In the latest five-year plan, a major focus is on the Greater Bay Area, an economic integration zone comprising Hong Kong and ten other cities like Macao and Shenzhen. Stay tuned for more updates on this exciting development! #HongKong #Barcelona #EconomicPromotion #TradeDevelopment #HKTDC #HKTDCSpain #GlobalOpportunities 🌍
