The rationale for establishing the European Chamber was based on the need of the European Union (EU) and European businesses to find a common voice across the various business sectors throughout China. The European Chamber has grown to more than 1,700 member companies and operates from seven chapters across nine cities: Beijing, Nanjing, South China (Guangzhou and Shenzhen), Shanghai, Shenyang, Southwest China (Chengdu and Chongqing) and Tianjin.
