Facilitated by the not-for-profit China Sourcing Information Center, this forum is ideal for China-focused procurement, sourcing and purchasing executives based in China or overseas who wish to learn and share in the following ways:

• offer relevant educational resources for sourcing professionals (such as pod casts, videos, white papers, blogs, tutorials…)
• expose underperforming suppliers (including 3rd party service providers)
• participate in the “ask the experts” service to ask or answer questions from peers
• arrange general networking opportunities
• engage in knowledge sharing and general debate and over industry trends and headline news

The group is not designed as a place to solicit suppliers as we are intentionally restricting access to China-based factories, sourcing agents and 3rd party service providers in the effort to reduce spam.

Brokers, Agents or Representatives of Chinese and Foreign owned factories in China will be allowed into the group on a limited basis so long as their participation brings clear value to the group and does not lead to the unsolicited and annoying sales pitches found in so many other groups on LinkedIn. « less
