Several days ago, the authoritative CICC (Camera di Commercio Italo Cinese) who has been dedicated to the Sino-Italian business cooperation gave a reference name list of Chinese investors, among which 20 investment institutions with sound qualifications and reputations are included. Shanghai & Florence - Sino Italian Design Exchange Center was among them by virtue of its precise orientation as well as considerate services.
CICC was born in the 1970s, representing one of the first commercial organizations established since the normalization of diplomatic relations between China and Italy. As a non-profit organization jointly recognized by both Chinese government and Italian Ministry of Economy, CCIC has been working hard to create the opportunities for the cooperation between companies in two nations; the senior CCIC is playing a significant role in the bilateral trade. Undoubtedly, this list will be conductive to the future business cooperation and trade between China and Italy.
Among the 20 recommended investment institutions on the list, Shanghai & Florence - Sino Italian Design Exchange Center officially set up in this March is the only one engaged in the service of cultural and creative industry. The Center is not only the first Chinese company to set up the development base for cultural & creative industry in Europe, but also a platform attracting the top design companies in two countries. Since the official start of the operation, various well-known Chinese brands have their offices at the base in Florence. “Business Center”, “Italian Business Center for Enterprise Brands”, “Master Studio” and other function areas are set up at the base, providing the Chinese enterprises with services concerning overseas promotion, exhibition & exchange, cooperation communication, business reception and development training, etc.
The successful experience of the Center serves as a brand new pattern for Shanghai-Florence exchanges and communications in the field of designing, and opens a new era for the design exchanges between China and Europe, leading to a new round of profound Sino-Italian cooperation in design, culture and commerce. Such achievements strongly justify the acceptance to be one of the Top 20 Best Chinese Investment institutions.
