OMFIF is hosting its third China-UK investor forum, following the success of the events held in 2022 and 2023. This year’s forum, ‘Fostering partnerships for global growth and prosperity’ is poised to be a central platform for examining and developing areas of mutual economic benefit for China and the UK.
