A Webinar focusing on Hot Opportunities in Medical Devices in China's Dynamic Emerging Markets

China's dynamic emerging markets represent great potential for American exporters, and in particular suppliers to the medical devices industry. Yet, second tier cities such as Tianjin, Nanjing, Shenzhen, and Chongqing are often overlooked as firms rigorously pursue hubs such as Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. This program is intended to educate U.S. medical device product and service providers on the promising sales opportunities in China's emerging markets, why they are critical to long term market penetration plans, and how to best approach these markets.
