The key to successful Manufacturing Site Selection in China  is understanding China's Economic Development Zones (EDZs). EDZs are the most important instruments national, provincial and local governments in China use to encourage and cultivate Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in the most dynamic economy in the world. EDZs are large swathes of land set aside by National, Provincial and Local authorities for the express purpose of attracting and cultivating foreign companies. The infrastructure, tax benefits and administrative support of the areas is more highly developed than in other parts of China.

EDZs are the easiest locations for foreign companies to establish their joint ventures and wholly-owned businesses. EDZs make it much easier than in the past to sell foreign products to the domestic China market or to export goods to other countries.

The Zones provide foreign enterprises with regulatory and tax havens in which businesses can flourish in the new China. American managers must know before they launch a venture in China how the Zones are structured and managed, the investment costs involved and logistical realities of the special areas to ensure the success of their businesses in China.

The one-day seminar Manufacturing Site Selection in China is based on the results of Silk Road Communications surveys completed by Chinese government officials in over thirty-five Zones in North, South and Central China. A Silk Road Communications team subsequently travels to the Zones to interview officials and foreign enterprise managers, review infrastructure standards, confirm land and human resource availability, and to better understand local environments.
