Against the backdrop of increased Chinese investment in Switzerland and the continuing interest in trading with and investing in China, the SCCC Legal Chapter offers a two-way bridge-building function as a centre of competence and exchange of Swiss and Chinese legal issues and developments.
The SCCC Legal Chapter will tackle topical issues from both, the Swiss and the Chinese side at its Forum 2018. The Forum is well suited for lawyers, in-house-legal counsels, but also for those who are otherwise involved or interested in cross-border legal issues between China and Switzerland.
The event is kindly supported by
