Post subject: Company Visits Sought!

Azusa Pacific University's Winter 2008 study abroad program is seeking a few more company visits for our study abroad program. We have 2 professors and 16 business students. Typically we visit a few manufacturing firms in Jinqiao and a few IT or finance companies in Puxi.

Can your company host a short (1.5 hour) visit? Usually the visits consist of a short talk about the company's history, products, and strategy; then we take a brief tour of your facility.

We are looking for visits on 12/31 and 1/2 in the morning or afternoon.

We are happy to give a small hongbao for setting this up for us. Thanks!

Hmm....Jan 1 and 2 are official holidays.

And it's gonna be tough pickings to find someone willing to host visitors on Dec 31, right before the start of the holiday. A lot of companies here are making that a mandatory day off, to save money.

Good luck with it. I'd offer up my company (we're a big multinational here), but not on those days.

Yeah, tough timing. Had it been non-holiday days, it would have been easier. i would also have offered up our local start-up as it probably would be fascinating for business students but, the timing is just off by a couple days o our work schedule too. good luck.

Might want to send an email to the American Chamber of Commerce, or any of the other chambers for that matter.
