[INVITATION] Sentiment Survey 2025-26 Launch Event

British business confidence in China is under the spotlight as the British Chamber of Commerce in China (BritCham) prepares to release its eighth annual Sentiment Survey, based on insights from over 300 companies operating across the country.

The report examines shifting sentiments around key issues such as market localization, supply chain dynamics, geopolitical factors, and growth opportunities for UK firms in China heading into 2026.

This year’s launch event will feature expert analysis of the findings, alongside a special comparative session with Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business (CKGSB), which will present data from its own survey of Chinese private-sector enterprises—offering a unique cross-market perspective on shared challenges and potential areas for Sino-British collaboration.
