The Roadshow

The Roadshow is a complementary initiative of the SSBA, during which companies have the opportunity to showcase their achievements and/or products in their selected award category at four different events hosted around China.

All the award candidates will have to present their projects in the selected award category. This segment provides a platform for candidates to showcase their successful strategies and approaches. It enables them to exchange valuable insights and experiences with local and international participants. A matchmaking will be co-hosted with the local International Chinese Chamber of Commerce.

Social media presence in the Swiss Embassy's 2024 Public Diplomacy Campaign

The winners of the business award in each category will have the chance to co-produce, with the Swiss Embassy, a video featuring one of their employees, showcasing their company’s success story and highlighting its connection with Switzerland. The videos will be shared on the Embassy's social media network as part the 2024 Public Diplomacy Campaign.

Exclusive Industry Recognition

Participation in this prestigious event provides access to a highly regarded platform that celebrates excellence, innovation, and impactful contributions. It not only elevates your company's profile but also enhances its reputation among stakeholders, while endorsing its accomplishments and unwavering dedication to success.
