Why this theme

ICE’s Suzhou fact sheet describes manufacturing and Italian industrial activity in nearby Kunshan, Changshu and Taicang. Build visits around processes and supply chains, with each host appointment confirmed separately.

01 / Questions to resolve

Priorities for this visit

  • Many company names, but no match between processes and buying requirements.
  • Spread-out factories leave too little time for technical discussions.

02 / Relevant conversations

Potential contacts

  • Manufacturers matching the required processes and components

  • Application, production or quality contacts accepting appointments

  • Industrial-area or specialist contacts relevant to local cooperation

Visits and meetings depend on the host’s appointment confirmation.
