Since May of last year, CGCC-Chicago changed its mode of invitation for business seminars. Member enterprises no longer simply get a forwarded email invitation sent by CGCC-Chicago partnered service providers; instead, they participate along with CGCC-Chicago in the process in researching, finding resources and deciding what seminar topics to be discussed. Seminars organized in this way included: government relations, corporate public relations, social responsibilities, credits and incentives, strategies for the 301 tariff, etc. Based on the results of last year’s Members’ Satisfaction Survey, topics such as government subsidies, cross-cultural communication, and organization leadership development will be covered in the coming months. On February 25, CGCC-Chicago will launch its first webinar on China International Import Exhibition (CIIE) promotion. This online format seminar aims to break the geographic barrier and enable more member enterprises to benefit from the service by CGCC-Chicago.
