Government relations play a crucial role in business in China and Team Finland Shanghai wants to make the most of that fact. On 30th of January the Finnish Business Council (FBCS) in collaboration with Consulate General of Finland in Shanghai hosted a seminar at Sofitel Shanghai Hyland where participants had the possibility to discuss with Ms. Marja Aspelund, Consul General, about the ways Team Finland can support Finnish companies in the greater Shanghai area.
During the seminar the Finnish business community was formally introduced to the concept of Team Finland Network, which will be launched in Helsinki 1st of February. In fact, Shanghai is one of the pioneers where the concept was implemented before it was officially invented.
