Trips to the People’s Republic of China

MCEP routinely visits China as part of an ongoing effort to forge lasting relationships abroad while building a greater understanding of China here at home. Right now, we take two different types of trips, bringing along people varying from local civic and business leaders to teachers and everyday Americans. If you’re interested in joining one of our trips, or getting further insight into our projects, please get in touch at 586.556.5623 or mcep99@gmail.com

Economic Development Trips

Our main purpose is to create connections between Macomb County and other economies throughout the world. We’re starting with China in a good-faith effort to build a positive relationship between China and Macomb’s businesses, schools, professional groups, and government. Our ultimate focus is to bring economic activity and job growth to Macomb County.

Prioritizing your business and professional needs, we offer very cost-effective trips that can be tailored to meet your desires and interests. Our economic development trips generally embark twice a year – every April and late November (after Thanksgiving) – last for about nine days, and are focused on the participants on the given trip. For businesses, we can enlist the help of our contacts in the US Consulate, Chinese business community, and local schools & governments help create a custom-fit plan that makes sense for you.

Cultural Trip

Are you someone interested in exploring China? Maybe you’re just fascinated by a new culture, interested in the global economy, or figuring out the impact of China’s rise on your family’s future. If so, this trip is for you.

Designed for the inquisitive, but flexible for most everybody, this is a trip where you’ll be able to see the developments – both historic and modern – that define Chinese life. We move between the centuries from site to site, and make it comfortable for you to experience the local culture. You’ll gain a realistic picture of what China is – and just as importantly, what it is not.

Usually occurring in April, MCEP’s Cultural Trip is set at a pleasant time of the year – before the heat of summer, but after the cold of winter.

Have a group with a special purpose? Let us design a trip for you. Whether you’re Chinese or American, a professional group, civic organization, or a school, we can help you build a rewarding, unforgettable experience that lasts a lifetime.

If you’re interested, or have any questions, please call or email us at {PHONE AND EMAIL}, and we can begin the discussion and planning.
