Ideal platform for successful networking
With the closing of the show, representatives of global brands also stressed the quality of the show and reinforced the assessment made by Zhao Feng, Vice President and CTO of Haier Home Appliances Group, who had called CE China an “ideal platform.”
Bernd Braukmann, CEO and President of German CASO Design, highlighted the benefits of presenting his brand in Shenzhen for his next steps into the world’s largest consumer market: "Being here at CE China provided us with very helpful feedback from visitors for our launch in China. With these insights into the Chinese market we are confident to launch our products latest next year. We also intensified our contacts to retailers so that we are strongly considering offline distribution next to online distribution channels.”
Likewise, Eppu Makipaa, R&D Manager of Finnish LIFAair concluded with a positive assessment: “CE China, with all the high-quality companies on display, provided a good environment for our presentation. We are very positive about the number and variety of visitors at our booth – including consumers and retailers from China and overseas.”
Jack Pei, Senior Director of Business Development from Royole, stressed that the US brand joined CE China in order to better reach consumers in China: “It is a great pleasure to join the CE China exhibition and IFA exhibition later this year. With the great help from IFA, we wish to make everyone, both in China and Europe, benefit from Royole’s technology."
