It was officially led by the Deputy Head of Mission Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany Beijing, Dr. Frank Rückert, and the Board members of two German Chamber of Commerce Chapters from German Chamber of Commerce in China | South & Southwest and German Chamber of Commerce in China | Shanghai.
The delegation visited several international and local companies, such as market leaders in automotive heating, air conditioning, and sunroof solutions, Webasto Group, and the production base of the automotive engine manufacturer, BorgWarner Inc.
