The „Hamburg Summit” has an international reputation as the most relevant Sino-European economic forum, as the participation of the leading Chinese politicians like Jiabao WEN (2006), Kai MA(2010) and Gang WAN (2012) exemplifies.

The „Hamburg Summit” was initiated by the Hamburg Chamber of Commerce in 2004 as a platform for an open dialogue between Europe and China with the goal to improve the economic relations and the understanding of each other.
