”Both networks create a completely new benefit,“ explains Thuringia‘s Economics Minister Wolfgang Tiefensee. ”They bring together companies that maintain foreign trade relations with the countries and companies from the U.S., Canada and China that are based here in Thuringia as investors.“ The TACT was launched in September. A month later, the China Network Thuringia was founded. Regular meetings are planned, two to three times a year, at which the network partners can exchange ideas. The next China Network meeting is scheduled for January 20, 2022; the TACT will also meet again around this time. (hw)
