     a seminar on Outsourcing to China: Myth and Reality

The National Outsourcing Association 

China continues to attract an increasing volume of offshore outsourcing business.  The attractions are obvious:  low cost, a very large labour pool, reliable infrastructure, diversifying risk away from India and a strong educational background.  This increased volume comes despite a regulatory regime that is less friendly to overseas business interests than that found in other popular offshore locations.  This presentation, jointly hosted by Morrison & Foerster and the UK's National Outsourcing Association, will examine aspects of that commercial and regulatory regime and, based on practical case study examples, will demonstrate which issues should continue to concern companies exploiting the Chinese market and which issues can be easily resolved - and how to do so.
