CCBC invites members to join Executive Director & COO Sarah Kutulakos for an exploration of China’s Greater Bay Area (GBA), a mega-region in Southern China that is a thriving hub of innovation and technology, with 73 million people and a GDP of USD 1.6 trillion, just behind the economy of Canada. With stops in Hong Kong, Guangzhou, and Shenzhen, members can observe how Canadian companies are navigating this market and how Chinese companies based here are innovating and globalizing. Many CCBC members have not traveled to this high-tech region in several years. See how the area is evolving, and how regional goals of economic integration, technology and innovation, and sustainable development create opportunities for future business.
