In the largest China-Ukraine private sector conference in memory, dozens of Chinese private company executives spent Monday and Tuesday meeting with Ukrainian counterparts in Kyiv, learning about Ukraine’s free trade pact with the EU, and taking steps toward investments. The Horasis China conference brochure listed 99 Chinese executives, but conference organizer Henry Shterenberg says 280 investors participated. “With the trade tension with the U.S., it is increasingly critical for Chinese to secure routes to the EU market,” Shterenberg said, visibly pleased at the last minute surge in arrivals from China.
