“Largest wind turbine in the world – turbine from China as high as the Eiffel Tower”
“China has the longest high-speed rail network”, “Largest wind turbine in the world – turbine from China as high as the Eiffel Tower”, “Automotive market of the future – the car of the future will largely come from China”. This small selection of recently published reports makes it clear that there is no way around China when it comes to future trends. German SMEs and corporations are benefiting from this development. Some of them have been very well positioned in terms of their China strategies for years.
For the seventh year in a row, the People’s Republic is Germany’s most important trading partner, ahead of the USA and France. Nevertheless, the Chinese market remains challenging. Government support influences global competition, and cultural differences mean that even experienced “China hands” still have doubts about their previous experience years later. International developments are causing a lack of long-term planning, especially among German SMEs.
