German-Chinese technical forumDiscuss requirements and possible cooperation with selected companies and researchers. For suitable projects, agree on samples, tests and follow-up meetings.
What you gainRecord the tests required, responsible contacts and follow-up dates.
Organisation & technical support
Preparation and support
For professionals responsible for production, quality, procurement and development—and technology providers with specific application questions.
Technical preparation
We clarify your objectives and give the Chinese hosts a technical briefing. Your counterparts are business leaders or senior managers with a technical background.
Plant visits and technical discussions
In production and development settings, you assess technology, integration and ROI using process and operating data. We organise a closed-door technical symposium and prepared one-to-one matchmaking with suitable partners.
Local project support
Our local team supports technical coordination and further project development. You receive a monthly Executive Briefing tailored to your interests, covering technologies, companies and cooperation opportunities.
