In Sweden, the delegation attended some special sessions where they talked with a number of key Swedish auto-part firms, such as Elways, Mimer IT, DXC Global, and AF Industry AB.
Cai said that Nansha would provide support for innovative Swedish enterprises looking to set up R&D and manufacturing operations in Nansha. Already home to a number of intelligent electric vehicle R&D and manufacturing centers and industrial clusters, the district aims to transform itself into a hub for auto scientists, as well as a global sci-tech innovation center.
