SINO-ITALIAN EXCHANGE EVENT – SIEE

The Sino-Italian Exchange Event was launched in 2007 by Città della Scienza, under a mandate of the Campania Regional Government, as a multiannual program for scientific and technological cooperation with China, especially with the Beijing Association for Science and Technology-BAST on behalf of the Beijing Municipality. In the eleven years of the program management, the initiative succeeded in gathering more than 3,500 Italian and Chinese professionals, with many agreements signed, and in extending the areas of cooperation across different regions and provinces in China.

Thanks to the results achieved, in 2012 the SIEE was included in a “Joint Statement” signed by the Italian and Chinese ministers of Research as one of the most significant exchange and cooperation initiatives between the two countries.

(The day’s work will be held in Italian and Chinese with a translation service provided).
