Chinese new year is over, well, probably this week a lot of factories still will be slow to get back started. Yes it is always a frustrating time for business owners, another fun fact about post Chinese new year, a lot of staff decide to not come back to the company. They were in their hometown and got some ideas to follow their dreams and change their career paths or maybe their parents and family got them on a new life path, so lots of hiring happening after things start back up.
For our cross border summit I am excited businesses are Back, I will visit again the venue and confirm the food and layout of the eating area, more people registering and even got a cross border taxi service talking to us.
