Advertise
in our Year 2000 Special Edition !
Advertising in the ABI guidebook is
recommended for any American company serious about doing business in China. As the only
officially sanctioned publication of its kind, ABI reaches more key decision-makers than
any other reference source in the People's Republic of China. Its pass along
value exceeds two million readers'
impressions.
ABI provides American companies with the opportunity to
present their name, image, products and services to the widest possible range of Chinese
industrial enterprises, foreign trade corporations, research institutes, colleges and
universities and public libraries.
Similar to the listing
of company names, any advertisements featured in our printed version
will be automatically added into our Web version as well as CD-ROM
version.
