FREE: Community Mixer and Kickoff for 2019 Engagement Series

2019 marks the 40th anniversary of the U.S. and China establishing diplomatic relations. Our countries are the largest trading partners with one another, and a bilateral trade relationship truly based on the principles of free, fair, and reciprocal trade and investment would benefit the people of both countries and have a significant positive global impact.

Join the AmCham China community for a New Year Mixer to celebrate the successful bilateral relationship and kick start a productive 2019! Key leaders from the Chamber including our new Board of Governors, AmCham's President Al Beebe and Forum & Committee leaders will all attend. This event is open to AmCham China Members and Employees of Member Companies as we plan for the year ahead.

Foreign businesses in China, and in particular American companies, have contributed significantly to China's economic growth and continue to provide innovative technologies and share best practices. American companies, through employment of a sizable Chinese workforce, with a significant presence in China work hard to provide tangible benefits to the people of China. They offer products and services that help infuse progress and vibrancy into everyday life of the Chinese people. These include building e-commerce platforms to connect Chinese small businesses to global markets, utilizing big data to improve customer experiences, promoting sustainability by conserving clean water resources, ensuring food safety for the abundance of food and beverages served at urban place restaurants and transported from supermarkets to family dining tables, among others.

American companies in China also deepen the connections between people of both countries. Our children grow and learn together to be better global citizens with shared responsibilities. Schools encourage exchanges between students through international education initiatives. Companies with robust diversity and inclusion programs help people understand different cultures. American sports franchises encourage universal values of health, athleticism and teamwork.

A light dinner, including refreshments is included.
