PHOTOS FROM CROSS BORDER SUMMIT

WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT THE SUMMIT

Kai Law
Amazon Seller
Aukland, New Zealand

“I had the pleasure of attending the Cross Border Summit early this year. I was super impressed by Mike and the whole team from Global From Asia put together. What you’ll get is a diverse range of speakers and attendees from around the world. What I got most out of it was the networking. After the event I was able to create a lot of business opportunities as well as friends. And that can be a very important thing when doing business in China and I found that hugely invaluable. So apart from that, I recommend attending next year’s event, I know I have it on my calendar.”

Rolands

“I’m Rolands from Taiwan doing different b2b ecommerce trade. Here I’m get a lot of actionable information. The information is really that good that I missed the after party yesterday. I went to the hotel and implemented the ideas. Like Brian Tracy said is that you take action. The Cross Border Summit has actionable ideas – that is the biggest takeaway.“

Vicky

“I’m Vicky and I’m from YKS Group. My company is a cross border ecommerce business in China. It is my first time in Cross border Summit. First of all it is a great chance to know the different people from different countries. A good chance to know what foreign people think of China.“
