China, as the world’s leading country of economic growth, is full of business opportunities. For the past decade, as we can see, China has been successful in importing advanced technologies and attracting business and technology professionals to its homeland for establishing a stronger economic system. In the foreseeable future, China will continue this policy to ensure its competitive edge of economic growth.

Grabbing the right opportunity is key to success but how and where to start a business in China is challenging for those who are not familiar with the laws and rules in China. To help address this common issue, CIE invites Mr. Charles Aster and Ms. Helen Hu from Kane Russell Coleman & Logan, P.C to host a seminar on doing business in China. Following is the agenda of the seminar: 1) Introduction – recent business and investment trends in China 2) Trading with China a. Direct international trade – licencing, IP protection and dispute resolution b. Setting up branch offices 3) Creating a business entity in China a. Setting up WOFE b. Setting up joint venture – contribution to JV and distribution of profits 4) Challenges of doing business in China 5) Q&A

Mr. Charles Aster is the director of Kane Russell Coleman & Logan, P.C.(KRCL), practice in the Business and Real Estate Sections concentrating in China-U.S. investment in real estate, professional sports stadium development and finance. Mr. Aster has worked with many foreign investors and institutions in acquiring and financing major real estate projects throughout North America.
