April 14 - 18, 2014: Pearl River Delta  SelectUSA Roadshow in Hong Kong, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou

Hong Kong, Shenzhen, and Guangzhou are at the heart of China’s Pearl River Delta, and the region has emerged as a global economic powerhouse. Thousands of dynamic Chinese companies are headquartered in the Pearl River Delta region, and many of these companies are looking to invest in the United States. CS Guangzhou and CS Hong Kong are organizing the first-ever Pearl River Delta SelectUSA Roadshow to Hong Kong, Shenzhen and Guangzhou to bring state Economic Development Offices (EDOs), regional EDOs and their partners to meet with potential investors and companies. During the Roadshow delegates will participate in customized one-on-one meetings with potential investors, meet with senior Chinese government officials, and participate in exclusive tours of cutting-edge manufacturing facilities in Shenzhen.

The Pearl River Delta region is the source of the highest amount of Chinese FDI into the United States - don’t miss this opportunity to promote your state and/or region during the Pearl River Delta Roadshow!
