CBBC’s second In the Zone Report launches

Understanding China’s Economic and Technological Development Zones, such as the Hainan Free Trade Port and others, is key to UK businesses benefitting from them. Following a launch at the China Development Institute’s annual China Development Zone Conference in Shanghai, CBBC‘s latest report from the ‘In the Zone’ series is now available

Complementing the first edition of In the Zone, which gave an overview of the different types of zones commonly seen in China – CBBC‘s second edition takes a deeper dive into China’s Economic and Technological Development Zones (ETDZs), showcasing the many preferential policies they offer to foreign investors, as well as the key sectors they focus upon.

With a foreword from HM Trade Commissioner John Edwards and contributions from in-market experts, the new report maps out the development of ETDZs and provides advice on both the practicalities of operating within these zones and best practices to achieve success.

As well as ETDZs, the new edition of In the Zone also details the latest updates on the Hainan Free Trade Port and the nine new Pilot Free Trade Zones announced in 2019 and 2020: projects that look set to play a significant role in China’s ongoing economic transformation. China’s zones continue to offer important benefits to UK businesses, therefore keeping on top of the latest zone-related policies remains one of the most effective ways to take full advantage of these benefits.
