The Centre for Asian Affairs, blending science, politics and business, is one of the most interesting initiatives in Łódź. The interdisciplinary centre founded at the University of Łódź brings together employees of numerous scientific and research units and persons whose interests and experience is associated with the region of East Asia. One of its main objectives consists in substantive support for Polish entrepreneurs for whom China, and also countries such as Japan, South Korea and Southeast Asia, are a natural direction of development. The tasks of the Centre include both identification of potential areas of co-operation with Asia and support for companies co-operating with Asian partners by providing information.

The Centre organises training meetings aimed at bringing the topic closer to those interested. One of the meetings, organised by the CAA in co-operation with the Investors and Exporters’ Service Centre of the Marshal Office of the Łódź Voivodship and Hong Kong Trade Development Council, took place in October last year in Biedermann Palace. The training was provided free of charge and was addressed both to entrepreneurs planning exports to Hong Kong and continental China and to the persons who are already involved in trade with China but feel the need to expand their knowledge in this regard.
The topics discussed at the meeting included a case study of Polish businessman on the market in Hong Kong, and a presentation of practical logistics solutions in transport to China.
