Join AmCham Shanghai's Entrepreneurship Committee on October 23rd, from 4:30-6:00 pm to discuss Shanghai's entrepreneurship visa. The Entrepreneurship Visa: Will It Work For You? will present practical steps on how to obtain the "business start-up visa" and first-hand knowledge about incentives for top foreign talent.


In their committed effort to turn Shanghai into a magnet for innovators and entrepreneurs, the city government has begun to offer foreigners the ability to live in China as they establish a business. In our event, we'll hear from industry experts on the benefits, requirements and application processes. Panelists will then discuss their personal experiences using this path to start their business as opposed to alternative methods. Whether you're an investor or thinking of launching a new business in China you won't want to miss this informative session.
