Xi's speech at CIIE draws positive reactions






Kai Beckmann, member of the Executive Board and CEO of Performance Materials of Merck Group
I understood China's support for free trade globalization and opening-up after I listened to President Xi's speech at the expo. China's effort in opening-up and cooperation with other countries impressed me. This is why China is an important market for Merck. The company will continue to invest in China and believe China will further improve its business environment and intellectual protection. The expo is key to promote China's opening-up. Merck presents our capabilities across performance materials, healthcare and life science sectors. We will strengthen our collaboration with our Chinese partners to contribute to China's objectives and to accelerate growth.
