We Look Forward to Seeing You There!

It was great to attend the Cross Border Summit. Personally for me it was the perfect bridge between manufacturing and selling products in and to China. Most valuable for me was to get solutions from specialist and keynote speakers directly one on one.

So What’s The Agenda?


It is the idea that Asia is becoming a leader in global business, and in order to keep on top of the changing trends in the world, we need to “match up” with sellers, marketplaces, and suppliers on this side of the globe.

The Cross Border Matchmaker is an event bringing together top e-commerce players from around the world to share their latest updates in the market and trends they are seeing. Learn first hand how to list on their market, and how to grow your e-commerce business.

On top of the various platforms sharing, we also have new and unique products sharing a demo. These suppliers are looking for help in getting distribution around the world. Keep on top of these trends by attending the Cross Border Matchmaker!
