Today (November 10, 2025), Mr. Bernd Reitmeier, Managing Director of Startup Factory China, visited the West Saxon University of Applied Sciences Zwickau (WHZ) to discuss potential forms of cooperation within the context of the Yi Qi project.
At the WHZ International Office, Mr. Reitmeier met with Ms. Betina Sedlaczek (Head of the International Office), Prof. Schumann (Professor of Business Informatics and a key member of the Yi Qi project), and Dr. Xiaoli Chen (Yi Qi project staff member).
During the approximately two-hour exchange, various perspectives for deepening German-Chinese cooperation were discussed. These include, among other things:
Opportunities for students from Saxony to study abroad in China
Practical and business contacts for CDHAW dual-degree students
and the use of the Yi Qi network as a bridge between institutions in Saxony and China
The meeting provides a promising foundation for the further development of strategic cooperation between WHZ and Startup Factory China within the framework of the Yi Qi project.
