AmCham China Chairman Colm Rafferty and the US Chamber's China Center President Jeremie Waterman both gave opening remarks to kick off the conference. Rafferty emphasized that AmCham China aims to maximize beneficial trade and development and keep the commercial lanes as open as is reasonably possible. He provided some key recommendations, which included keeping economic and trade lanes open, coordinating with partners on relevant issues, restarting government-to-government communication at all levels and increasing people-to-people exchanges. Finally, he encouraged the US-China business community to address areas of concerns while also ensuring that the American business community remains an active and positive force in China.
