Tour of China 2013 brings EU and China closer

After the speech by EU Ambassador to China Markus Ederer, one participant of the Tour of China 2013 introduces the latest situation of the project in Beijing, capital of China, on October 17, 2013. The Tour of China is a collaborative project of the Delegation of the European Union to China and the EU Member States and Countries associated to the EU Framework Programme working on Research & Innovation cooperation with China. Each Tour event will provide a unique set of lectures and presentations promoting the different research and innovation programmes, policies, and funding instruments offered by the EU and the participating European countries. The Tour also aims to engage with local authorities by providing a clearer picture of what sets Europe apart as a world-class destination for research. [Photo by Huang Shuo / chinadaily.com.cn]
