Yangtze River Delta – Europe Investment Promotion

Supporting investment promotion agencies in connecting with Chinese companies through sector-targeted programs, enterprise identification, and structured visit design — drawing on GovLink's YRD–Europe cooperation experience.

Who This Is For

Investment promotion agencies, economic development boards, and industrial park operators seeking to attract Chinese outbound investment. Also relevant for chambers of commerce and trade offices connecting their business communities with Chinese enterprises.

Why Local Context Matters

Chinese companies evaluating overseas investment rely on institutional introductions and trusted intermediaries. They expect sector-specific information, value in-person engagement, and require bilingual communication throughout the evaluation process. Generic outreach — mass emails or translated brochures — is ineffective.

Five Partner Capabilities

01  Sector and City Targeting

Identifying specific industrial clusters and enterprise profiles relevant to the agency's value proposition.

02  Enterprise Identification

Finding companies with genuine outbound interest and capacity to evaluate overseas opportunities.

03  Credible Program Design

Structuring visits that respect the Chinese enterprise's decision-making process.

04  On-the-Ground Coordination

Managing logistics and bilingual communication across multiple Chinese cities.

05  Follow-Through Support

Maintaining engagement after initial meetings — the phase where most cross-border initiatives lose momentum.
