The UK business relationship with China is as diverse as it has ever been – as China embarks on a period of more sustained growth, after 30 years of rapid expansion, the opportunities for UK enterprises to engage, partner and share mutually beneficial growth with Chinese counterparts continue to expand.

Becoming a member of the British Chamber of Commerce in China means you will be joining a network of business leaders and industry experts. From big multinationals to small start-ups, companies join our membership programme to network with experienced peers, to develop strategies for expansion, and to contribute to policy development.

Our membership is designed to suit businesses of all sizes and at different stages of entry to the Chinese market. Whatever your objective, you can be sure to get the services, support and assistance you need to succeed via one of our membership categories.

Grow and Develop Your Business Network in China

Through our membership programme, we have helped thousands of companies to understand the market opportunities awaiting them, to engage with Chinese counterparts, and to build their businesses in China.

Our business advisers, many with a specific sector focus, have extensive and long-term knowledge of the Chinese market. Our network of business advisers is able to offer unrivalled insights and perspectives on the growth of markets and what that means for our members, and provide balanced guidance about doing business in China.

We are also committed to creating an organisation that is inclusive for Chinese businesses. Becoming a member of the British Chamber of Commerce is a great way to engage with British business, whether they are established in China, starting out, or visiting the country as part of a business delegation.
