Since 2009, SABIC has established strong connections with key government officials, industry players and customers. Our continued participation this year aims to network and build on these existing connections to deepen strategic alliances.
Through this high-level forum, SABIC aims to reaffirm our strong commitment to China through continued investment in people, technology and infrastructure, leveraging on our strong partnership with local business parters like SINOPECand others as the company advances its footprint in China. We aim to create top of mind awareness in the petrochemical space as a preferred global petrochemical partner in Asia and the world.
