Citslinc, Inc., is a Chamber member who has partnered with other area Chambers throughout the country to offer new business opportunities in an international setting. China is experiencing a huge economic boom and seeks to develop business partnerships with Massachusetts companies. This trip has generated such a high volume of response in other Chambers which allows the cost to be so low.
Given the great opportunity and amazing sight-seeing, we invite all community members to attend. The Chamber does service member businesses foremost, but we also support the community and efforts that make Brockton a positive place to live. Having a strong residential and cultural community enforces a stronger business community. Also, most of our members do live in Brockton. We hope that any interested people will attend the meetings on April 13 to learn more about the trip.
The trip is offered at the same price for Chamber members and for residents. No one is traveling for free.
The trip was great. Over 55 people went on the trip, and it exceeded everyone's expectations. Very knowledgeable and charismatic tour guides, first class accommodations, and a packed schedule. It was fascinating to learn about the culture, history, and economic boom and visit all the tourist attractions.

The Chamber and CITSLINC will be leading another tour on October 11-19, 2010, visiting Beijing (and the Great Wall), Xi’an and the Terra Cotta Soldiers, and the 2010 World EXPO in Shanghai. Let me know if you are interested or have any questions.
