Squire, Sanders & Dempsey L.L.P. is joining with China Centric Associates, LLC to offer a China Business Immersion Trip to our clients.

Participants will prepare for their visit by attending a special half-day seminar Friday, March 10, 2006, taught in Cleveland by experienced operating executives with extensive China management track records and others, including Squire Sanders lawyers specializing in China legal issues. Then they’ll travel to China March 24-31, 2006, visiting manufacturers in Beijing, Shanghai, Suzhou, Guangzhou and Zhuhai – learning about business in China right at the source, from experts in industries and businesses already there.

There, they will meet with China experts from the American Chamber of Commerce (AmCham), Chinese Development Zone administrators, functional executives from marquee companies doing business throughout China and Squire Sanders in-country legal advisers. They will:
