Steve Ashdown from Phoot Creative, Chairman of the Creative Shropshire network, has been actively developing business links with China to help the Chinese to do business here and vice versa, see www.phoot.com/china for more information... English translation on the right!
We hear so much about the impact of Chinese busines and now is your opportunity to hear first hand how a local dynamic business has been taking advantage of the opportunities.
