Bureau Veritas Opens Its Big Seminar Room in Shanghai
Designed to support the  increasing demand for training in North China (including Shanghai)

June 2008 – Bureau Veritas, the world’s leader in conformity assessment and certification services, announces the grand opening of its seminar room in Shanghai, China. This new space will serve as a key training facility for the consumer products industry in the ChangJiang Delta region.

This new large seminar room in the Minhang district was opened by Bureau Veritas Shanghai in response to the rising demand for training, seminars and conferences on testing and assessment services in the ChangJiang Delta region, which is the world’s major manufacturing hub for consumer products exports in North China. It enables Bureau Veritas to respond promptly to the needs of retailers, manufacturers and importers located in North China for training and educational seminars on quality assurance, compliance requirements and other related issues.  

With an area of 240 square meters, the 100-seat new seminar room is ideal for tailor-made training for specific client’s vendors or public seminars on a topic of interest. Its unique design enables the space to be used for either  smaller meetings or larger conferences and to easily transition between the two. The room is also equipped with projection facilities that are readily available for screening and provide access to the Internet.

Mr. Alvin Fung, General Manager of Bureau Veritas Consumer Products Services Shanghai, said, China is under great pressure to meet the need for ever-rising quality at a cost-down price. Our new seminar room enables more training on Quality Assurance and technical conferences on topics such as how to improve testing failures not only for manufacturers and factory owners, but also for global brands and retailers. More importantly, it reflects our continued commitment to providing an ongoing quality improvement solution to our customers. Since last year, we have been actively contacting clients who have received a failed test report on the same item twice, hoping to help them improve and get a pass on their next test report. Our new seminar space will allow us to offer additional training and seminars to help our clients prevent and correct such failures. The opening of our seminar room is a value-added service to help China companies to move forward with confidence on their product quality.
