BEIJING, March 26 (Xinhua) -- Numerous multinational companies now regard investing in China as a "must" for strategic growth, a spokesperson for the Ministry of Commerce said on Thursday.
In recent weeks, senior executives from leading multinational companies, including Apple, Eli Lilly, BASF, Volkswagen, Bosch and Al-Futtaim Group, along with representatives from business associations such as the U.S.-China Business Council, have visited China in quick succession, ministry spokesperson He Yongqian told a press conference.
During their visits, they spoke highly of China's economic resilience, innovation vitality, vast market size, and continuous improvement in business environment, the spokesperson said.
Many multinationals are increasingly positioning China as a key innovation hub for their global operations, according to the spokesperson.
