Go-to-market is enterprise field sales supported by four regional centers (Beijing, Shanghai, Chengdu, Guangzhou), international offices in Sydney, London, and San Francisco, and a formal regulatory role as Vice Chair of the China Chemical Pharmaceutical Industry Association's Compliance Professional Committee and as the only national-level MICE industry association president unit in China.
