Foreign investors are still keen on making investment in China as the country manages to recover fast from the COVID-19 pandemic and due to its continuous efforts to open up wider to the outside world and welcome foreign investment with relaxed regulations.
For those investors, one of the effective ways to step into or expand business in the Chinese market is to join hands with local companies.
In a recent survey conducted by European Chamber, about 62 percent of respondents with operation in China said they would continue to cooperate with Chinese enterprises to increase investment in the world's second largest economy.
For example, given the increasing popularity of internet-powered medical care services under the pandemic, GE Healthcare, the healthcare arm of General Electric (GE), is actively promoting applications such as fever clinic upgrades, smart ICU, intelligent operation, smart equipment and AI-assisted diagnosis, enhancing domestic supply chain capabilities and local service capabilities, thus further participating in China's medical and health care industries.
In the future, GE plans to cooperate with more Chinese internet companies and industry associations to improve its smart healthcare ecosystem, according to Xiang Weiming, president and CEO of GE China.
However, the rising interest in cooperation with Chinese companies is often dampened by the pain-points of where to find reliable partners and how to know them better before serious contacts and discussions.
