Why Qingdao?
Qingdao is one of China’s quickest developing centers of industrial and commercial business and innovation. It’s an important coastal city, plays a critical role in supply chains and is the main economic corridor in the “Belt and Road” trade agreement. As such, Qingdao is the ideal location for Aden to implement industry 4.0 projects and innovative upgrades in the healthcare and energy sectors.
Starting 2021 off strong
Aden couldn’t think of a better way to welcome 2021 than with a milestone strategic cooperation agreement with a long-time municipal partner. With growing incentives from ambitious energy policies and new opportunities exposed by the economic shakeup resulting from 2020’s COVID pandemic, 2021 is set to be a year of rapid disruption in the industries covered under this agreement. With this signing, Aden Group and Qingdao are getting an early lead in the race to build smarter, cleaner and more robust industrial and commercial infrastructure.
