Local businesses are encouraged to declare their interest in joining a proposed trade mission to China later this year.

Advance Cairns, Tropical North Queensland’s peak economic development agency, is investigating the scale of opportunities available to the region’s businesses to expand their operations into China.

The organisation, with the support of Cairns Regional Council, is working closely with The Beijing Consulting Group (BCG) to determine what opportunities exist for Tropical North Queensland businesses to take their business into China, as well as determine which regions in China will be the most advantageous for a delegation to visit and undertake pre-determined business to business matching meetings.

A briefing session about the concept of a trade mission to China will be held on Wednesday (June 17) from 2pm to 3pm in the boardroom at the Department of Employment, Economic Development & Innovation, corner of Hartley and Grafton Streets.

To register your interest in attending the briefing session call Advance Cairns on 4080 2900.
