The distinguished government team, led by Madam Zhong Ming, the executive president of CCIIP (China Council of International Investments Promotion), included the Director of CCIIP and senior officials from China Sourcing Services.

They were shown the Phase III expansion of the Science Park by representatives from UBi Group, headed by their CEO Dr. Zhong Li. Also in attendance were senior executives from CSC (Computer Science Corporation) and BT (British Telecom), who are UBi’s strategic business partners in the field of green IT innovations and solutions.

A formal meeting in UBi’s boardroom was followed by a banquet lunch in the historic setting of Keele Hall, at which the Chinese visitors were joined by officials from the University of Keele including Professor Patrick Bailey, Dean of the Faculty of Natural Sciences. Completing the international gathering were representatives from Advantage West Midlands and Newcastle Borough Council.

During the visit Madam Zhou commented “We are very impressed by the significant progress which the UBi UK team has made in recent months on their Green Technology Programme at Keele. MOFCOM will continue to provide our ultimate support for this major strategic transformation programme to ensure UBi’s successful delivery of the programme for the best outcomes in the UK and China.”

Keele’s ‘Green Campus’, in which UBi UK is located, is really making its mark on the international business scene.
