Frequently Asked Questions
Why include Shanghai if the companies are in Nanjing?
Shanghai is a practical international arrival point and provides regional context. Groups already in Nanjing can begin there and shorten Day 1.
Can we enter the SAIC MAXUS factory?
The host confirms which plant and visitor areas are available. A general brand visit is not presented as factory-floor access.
Can Phoenix Contact arrange a technical session?
A focused session can be requested using the delegation’s industries and questions. Topic and speaker depend on availability.
What is NewPwr?
NewPwr is a Nanjing industrial company focused on products such as safety barriers, isolators and transmitters used in process systems.
Can this tour continue to Suzhou?
Yes. High-speed rail makes Suzhou a logical next stop for a longer Yangtze Delta manufacturing program.
