Event Details

To commemorate Swiss companies' achievements in sustainable development and industrial innovation, and to deepen collaboration between Swiss and Chinese manufacturers, SwissCham Shanghai, in partnership with CND, invites you to an exclusive event on Friday, July 25th in Changzhou.


The event brings together industry experts and company leaders to explore how automation, digitization, and human-robot collaboration are driving operational efficiency, transforming business models, and reshaping workforce strategies in modern manufacturing. Among the speakers, Lucas Rondez, CEO of TAROMED and National Chairman of SwissCham China, will share insights on how the Swiss entrepreneurial mindset aligns with China's technological advancement and speed, drawing from TAROMED's successful development journey from China to the USA. A representative from UBS will also provide a forward-looking perspective on "Future Outlook: Manufacturing Trends Beyond 2030", shedding light on the evolving global landscape and what it means for companies preparing for long-term competitiveness.


In addition to expert-led discussions, the program includes site visits to two leading enterprises — Mettler Toledo, a Swiss provider of high-precision instruments used in research, quality control, production, logistics, and retail; and Xingyu, one of China's largest manufacturers and solution providers for complete automotive lamp assemblies. These visits will offer firsthand perspectives on how both companies are integrating digital technologies, automation, and sustainable practices into their production processes.


This is a unique opportunity to gain first-hand knowledge of the practical implications and strategic considerations involved in shifting toward practical excellence in manufacturing. We look forward to welcoming you to this insightful event!


Please note that the language for this event is Chinese only.
