In China With Michelle Zou

The 2019 CES (Consumer Electronics Show) in Las Vegas was a big success with over 4,500 exhibiting companies attended the show during Jan 8-11. I attended CES, and I was amazed by the number of Chinese companies at the show. I estimate that about 1/3 of the exhibiting companies were from China. There is a similar show in China called China (Shanghai) International Technology Fair (CSITF) which is organized by the Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Commerce of China and the Municipal Government of Shanghai. This is a gateway for companies to enter the China market, test the market, find customers, partners, and investment. I interviewed the Managing Director of CSITF, Mr. Eric Cai at CES, to understand more about CSITF, what is the difference between CSITF, who should attend it, and what is the benefits for going there.
