Hong Kong China Club Hong Kong Located just north of Hong Kong, Shenzhen is the gateway to China. Once a fishing village, Shenzhen has been transformed into China’s own ‘Silicon Valley’ over the last 30 years, reinforcing its status as one of Asia’s pivotal tech ecosystems.

Home to over 15 million people, Shenzhen is home to many of the world’s leading, hyper-growth technology companies; such as Huawei, , shenzhen insider tour Tencent and DJI. This July, we will be taking you on an exclusive insider tour july 29 to Huawei, which has dominated APAC markets to become the world’s second largest producer of network equipment. Along with dominating established telecommunications solutions providers, Huawei is now also a major force within smartphone markets, with over 5% global market share in 2015 to date.

While in Shenzhen, we will also visit DJI, the global leader in developing and manufacturing high performance drones. With the recent launch of their Phantom drone, DJI now accounts for 70% of the consumer drone market worldwide and is valued at over $10 billion. Headquartered in Shenzhen, DJI remains committed to prioritizing R&D efforts in China while expanding its global workforce to over 3,000 in less than 10 years.

We will be going behind the scenes in Shenzhen, getting unrivaled access and insight into the inner functions of Huawei and DJI. Senior executives from each will guide us through what it takes to become a market leader and operate in Shenzhen while facilitating global market demand. With demos, discussions and more surprises to be revealed on the day, the Shenzhen Insider Tour is set to be one of the highlights of Converge.
