Dr. Heinz Fischer, President of the Republic of Austria, visited Beijing in March 2015 accompanied by a high-level business delegation to strengthen economic cooperation between Austria and China.
During a business briefing and networking reception attended by more than 500 representatives from government and industry, President Fischer highlighted the growing importance of bilateral trade and investment. Discussions focused on opportunities across machinery, infrastructure, mobility, energy, environmental technologies, life sciences, medical technology, consumer industries, and tourism.
Austria is internationally recognized for its highly specialized industrial companies and export-oriented mid-sized businesses. As these companies continue to expand internationally, China remains an important market for investment, growth, and local leadership development.
