The Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-City is a flagship bilateral cooperation project between China and Singapore to create a sustainable development model that meets the needs of a rapidly urbanising China. Strategically located in the economically-vibrant Tianjin Binhai New Area (TBNA), the city will be an eco-friendly modern township where 350,000 residents live, work, play and learn.
TBNA is the one of the fastest-growing regions in China with 25% GDP growth in 2010, its annual GDP surpassing that of Shanghai Pudong. Abundant business and investment opportunities have led Singapore investors to channel over RMB1.6 billion into the Eco-City. With strong support from both the Singapore and Chinese governments, the Eco-City is a conducive and stable platform for Singapore companies looking to enter the North China market to showcase their capabilities and build up their China track record.
The Sino-Singapore Tianjin Eco-City Development Co., Ltd. (SSTEC), the master developer of the Tianjin Eco-City, with the support of IE Singapore, will now be able to offer even greater assistance to Singapore companies in defraying their business development costs at the Eco-city. This will enable Singapore companies to use the Eco-City as a base to participate in the growth of Tianjin and the Bohai Rim Area.
Come join us at the seminar to find out more.
