A MESSAGE FROM THE PROGRAM DIRECTOR
Swedish-Chinese entrepreneur and CEO of ScandiChina Connecting Center, Sikau Tran
“Here at ScandiChina Connecting Center we offer Nordic companies 3–5-day tours in and around Hangzhou with the goal of networking and establishing new business relations, meeting potential investors and gaining a deeper understanding of Chinese culture and industry. We make sure that you get the chance to pitch for investors onsite, giving you the best possible chance to secure the support you need for your ventures. With our help, you will get a strong basis for future success in China. With the help of Nihub Innovation Centre, Hangzhou Municipality and leading Chinese organizations we seek to expand participants’ networks with essential Chinese connections.”

Our program in Hangzhou
Ten start-ups will be selected for participation in the Market access tour to take place in the spring of 2023. The program is funded, in large parts, through sponsorships from ScandiChina in collaboration with Nihub Innovation Centre. We cover the expenses for program activities, travels, and hotels. The only additional cost is an administration fee of € 500 per participant. Considering that the real value of the tour regularly is in excess of € 6 000, it is a very generous price.
