The Vermont Chamber in China
The Vermont Chamber of Commerce maintains an office in Shanghai, China. The office was established in 1998 to increase the visibility of Vermont products and services. Making a business trip to China? Let us assist with putting together a meeting schedule to help you make the most of your valuable time.
The Vermont Chamber’s China Mentor Network
Have you made all the right decisions developing your business in China—or learned from mistakes that should never be repeated? Your knowledge, experience and contacts in China can help other Vermont businesses to succeed in the Chinese market. Your name won’t be distributed, but by sharing information about your skills and experience in China, we can connect you with Vermont Chamber members who will benefit from what you’ve learned—or can connect you with fellow members who can provide qualified information and advice. The Vermont Chamber will host networking and roundtable events developed for the China Mentor Network audience and skills training related to doing business in China in 2012. To join this member’s only network, contact Dana Eidsness.
