2024 SILICON VALLEY MAYORS’ CHINA TRIP SPONSORSHIP INVITATION LETTER

BACKGROUND

As innovation in China takes off, Chinese companies are increasingly looking outside of China for business opportunities and technology partnerships. On the other side of the Pacific, Silicon Valley has attracted top notch researchers, engineers and developers from around the world and has provided a perfect environment for the growth of creative ideas.

Although the potential gains of a closer relationship between Silicon Valley and China may seem obvious, they are far from guaranteed. Of the $1.3 billion Chinese investment in California since 2000, Silicon Valley/South Bay region is only the third most attractive area for Chinese investment. This is partially due to lack of information exchange and effective people-to-people investment promotion activities that help Chinese investors fully appreciate the abundant opportunities here in Silicon Valley. A traditional hands-off approach is outdated and inadequate. Encouraging support for local initiatives and joint efforts from both government and private sectors are required.

China Silicon Valley (CSV) is a nonprofit organization headquartered in Silicon Valley with branches in Beijing, Chengdu, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. The mission of CSV is to promote investment and business opportunities between China and Silicon Valley.
