Fragomen will host the Global China Immigration Conference on Wednesday, 17 September 2025 at JW Marriott Marquis Hotel Shanghai Pudong.
As global geopolitical dynamics shift and economies increasingly compete for talent, immigration continues to play a pivotal role in workforce strategy. With the global evolving immigration framework and broader international regulatory complexities, organizations must navigate change with agility, foresight, and innovation.
