Nov. 8 – The Only Italia mission to China has been a great success. The President of the initiative, Irene Pivetti, during her visit to Beijing and Shanghai, met with institutional representatives and interested buyers in order to build a fruitful and lasting partnership with the company network. This visit was a precious opportunity to test first-hand the potentiality of the Chinese market and the possibility to transfer to Italian companies the tools needed to export their products in the country. “It was a valuable opportunity – reads a note – to show the excellent results achieved so far by Only Italia. It was also essential to share business plans with important personalities and develop relations with relevant stakeholders.” The visits of the President at the Embassy, Consulate, and the ICE Shanghai office, as well as the Italian Chamber of Commerce in Beijing, have served as the backdrop to the presentation of the services offered by the network. They were also key presenting the companies within the Only Italian network. President Pivetty also met with the Shanghai Governor, to whom she was able to explain the current network structure and composition, the exported products and the strategic plan for launching the business in the Chinese market: a registered trademark, an Only Italia certificate, and a series cultural events, which will hopefully lead to a willingness to build partnerships between Italian and Chinese entrepreneurs. The Governor expressed great interest in these issues and confirmed his intention to provide institutional support.
