World Expo in Shanghai 2010

Opportunity for a focused creative and digital industries visit to the World Expo in Shanghai 2010

This is a unique opportunity as Liverpool is the only UK city at the World Expo in Shanghai 2010 and will be representing the Northwest. The World Expo is running from May to October 2010, and is expected to attract around 70 million visitors and will showcase the cultural and economic vibrancy of the world's leading urban centres and nations.

The Liverpool Pavilion is to be a showcase for the dynamic creativity and enterprise that is embodied by the city - and a showcase for the historic renaissance, which it has undergone, in the last decade. The Pavilion will also position Liverpool as the gateway to England’s North West, telling the story of the region’s diversity, scale and the exceptional quality of its culture, with a rich and varied heritage, sporting and leisure offer and some outstanding natural environments.

China-UK Bridge and Pacificstream are organising focused visits to Shanghai to introduce you to Chinese business culture and to the opportunities available for your business. This visit will be a catalyst for future business collaborations.
