The conference will differ from many existing events, in that there will be specific subjects of interest to a Chinese commercial audience, as well as matters which are important to Western firms wishing to engage with crucial strategic partners in mainland China.

There will be a very strong emphasis on face to face communication with potential business associates, senior executives within Chinese firms, in an exclusive environment with unparalled opportunities for networking.

The event will be featured in Chinese media, and will be attended and covered by over 15 Chinese media companies, including Baidu which will present the event on a nationwide basis, in keeping with China’s emphasis on broadcast media channels for commercial purposes.

FinanceFeeds looks forward to hosting you in one of China’s all important Tier 2 development cities which is home to a massive and highly valuable FX industry, and introducing the conference, Mr Saks McLeod says: “Many FX firms recognize real value in operating in China, and a few very large, well capitalized firms have succeeded, however there is a massive and largely untapped base of highly professional introducing brokers with offices that resemble those of brokerages, wealth managers, technology firms and hosting companies in operation, making mainland China not only a focus for Western brokerages but a very lucrative market indeed.”

“I very much look forward to meeting you all at the conference, and am certain that by convening in Guangzhou, companies looking to secure their relationships with Chinese commercial partners will be very much at an advantage when provided with the opportunity to meet, discuss current matters of importance and secure very important deals” he added.
