Kathinka asks: Moderation

Business in China – Experiences, Opportunities, and Challenges

September 2, 2026 · 5:00–7:30 p.m. · Hanau Family Academy

For many German companies, China remains one of the most important—and at the same time, most challenging—international markets.

How is business in China changing? What experiences are local companies having? What economic, cultural, and legal conditions must be taken into account—and where do opportunities still lie?

On “Kathinka Asks—Business in China,” I moderate discussions with entrepreneurs and experts who have different perspectives on China.

On the podium:

Thomas Carduck – Badtke Edelstahl
Joyce Vergien – BDO
Katrin Ganß – VACUUMSCHMELZE
Uwe Endruschat – Heraeus

This is not about theoretical considerations, but rather about real-world business experience and the question of what companies need to know today if they are operating in China or establishing business relationships there.
