What to expect for your China business in 2022?


Sweden-China Trade Council is happy to invite all members to take part of InterChina’s Business Forecast 2022 in a webinar on December 14, 2021.

InterChina’s Business Forecast, published yearly for the past 15 years, is a comprehensive report based on replies by 287 country managers in China, interviewed in October and November 2021, covering a wide range of sectors present on the Chinese market.

For most companies China is expected to contribute more revenue and profit to Head Quarters. At the same time however, “Business as usual” is gone forever: decoupling is here to stay while China is adjusting its domestic economic and political priorities – from quantity to quality. In addition, the competitive challenge of Chinese companies is increasing by the day.

What does this mean for your China business?

  • Where does the “New China” stand in your company’s global strategy?
  • What does it mean “to be Chinese” for the company?
  • Is the company fully capturing the Chinese innovation boom?
  • What is the role of inorganic growth for your company?
  • How can the company achieve alignment between Head Quarter and China teams?

Jan Borgonjon and Michael Thurow of InterChina will present the findings of their Business Forecast 2022.
