Li Gang, as the representative of CGCC Chicago and WANXIANG America, along with Ms. Zopp, CEO of WBC led the U.S. delegation. China Ministry of Commerce Investment Promotion Bureau (CIPA), local governments, US EDC representatives in China, and local companies welcomed the U.S. delegation. The representative presented the 4th CGCC Chicago Annual Gala on September 17th in Chicago, IL USA to companies and commerce chambers in China with the Handbook of the 2019 U.S. Midwest Investment, and the annual conference video. The Governors of the five cities were much interested and highly recognized the investment environment in Chicago and the Midwest. They expected to see more investment guides and topics such as different investment fields, successful stories of Chinese-funded enterprises in the United States, and the existing challenges and solutions. We hope that the 4th annual gala will help both Chinese and American companies to enhance mutual benefit.

Other honorable CGCC Chicago members who participated in the roadshow expressed their gratitude too. They would like CGCC to host more activities in the future to improve the business development of Chinese and American companies.
