China, as widely known in the world, is on the path of success too of course. China is besides Japan the leading industrial location in Asia. But to keep growth rates high, just factoring for the world will no more be enough. On the one hand China has to empower growth drivers - on the other hand there are increasing opportunities for chinese companies because of more and more experience on the international markets.

Mid cap companies from China now can follow the footprints of the giants from their home market. What is possible for Haier and Lenovo can be done by mid cap companies too: direct investments in international market places are the next step for chinese companies to stable and enforce their role on the world markets.

As India, China will have a sound cost advantage also in future. Chinese costs might even lower than indian costs. China too has a sound and growing experience in industrial manufacturing also in high tech sectors meanwhile. Differences in culturs and languages can be overcome. So there's no wonder that studies estimate a high growth of chinese direct investments in all important markets of the world - also Europe and the US of course. As for indian companies, european SMEs very often could be a potential partner to provide brand names and access to sales channels.

TSSF hopes to open a representative office in Shanghai too very soon to facilitate collaboration.
