The year 2025 marks the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between China and the European Union, a milestone that highlights five decades of dialogue, partnership, and shared economic progress.
In celebration of this landmark year, officials from the Chengdu Municipal Government visited Frankfurt, Germany, for an investment promotion initiative aimed at deepening trade and investment cooperation between China and Europe. The delegation met with business leaders and institutional representatives to explore new areas of collaboration in innovation, sustainability, and industrial transformation.
As one of China’s leading gateways for international engagement, Chengdu continues to play a pivotal role in China-Germany cooperation. The city has become a central hub for projects in advanced manufacturing, green technology, digital transformation, and cultural exchange, all of which are vital to the long-term partnership between China and Germany.
During the Chengdu delegation’s visit to Frankfurt, Kai Scholz, Partner and Head of Legal & Operations Germany at Oracle Law Global, was invited by Chengdu’s official media to join the “Nihao Chengdu” Global Salon. This special edition connected Frankfurt and Chengdu through a live dialogue with German business representatives, providing global audiences with an authentic view of China through the window of Chengdu’s international outreach.
In his interview, Mr. Scholz introduced Oracle Law Global’s China Desk, a specialised practice dedicated to supporting China-Europe cross-border transactions, foreign investment projects, and international corporate expansion. He also discussed current trends shaping China-Germany economic relations, emphasising collaboration opportunities in sustainable industries, technology transfer, and trade law innovation.
