& A project initiated by ADDRESSING THE NEEDS of EUROPEAN AND CHINESE LIFE SCIENCE SMEs MATEUSZ DAWIDOWSKI SENIOR CONSULATANT

Open Sino-European network of professionals related to the life science sector Since January 2012 Firstly an initiative of BioWin and Lyonbiopole More and more members from both Chinese and European sides Better assist SMEs operating (or going to operate) on the Chinese market.  Life Science  SMEs  Networking  Discussions  Information  Animation  Collaboration  Sharing  Visibility INTRODUCTION

Networking represents a strategic tool for developing both their business and R&D. Lack of specialised wide network and support in China Such network could help EU and Chinese SMEs connecting and developing strategic partnerships. European Bioclusters could work more closely to share their SMEs’ challenges and questions regarding the Chinese market. Need of a mutualised network and experience sharing platform. WHY?
