The Flanders-China Chamber of Commerce, with the support of Flanders Investment and Trade, organized a walking dinner with the new Flemish Economic Representatives in China, Mr Koen De Ridder (Beijing) and Mr Frank Van Eynde (Shanghai). Before his departure to Beijing, Mr De Ridder gave a presentation on the economic and societal tendencies in China (1949 to the present) on August 25 in Ghent.

A walking dinner followed the presentation, where the participants had the opportunity to welcome the new Flemish Economic Representative in Shanghai Mr. Frank Van Eynde, who has been Commercial Attaché in Vilnius, Lille, Helsinki, Saint-Petersburg and Moscow. The walking dinner also gave them the opportunity to exchange views with the new VLEVs on their export or investment plans on the Chinese market.
