Global Shifts, Local Solutions: Steering Immigration Strategy Through Global Change
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.
Our conference will explore timely developments and practical strategies for global talent deployment and compliance. We are honored to be joined by Shanghai government officials, and esteemed Fragomen professionals including Becky Xia, Managing Partner of China and guests from Fragomen overseas offices.
Key topics include:
- Navigating Global Immigration Landscape: Updates on policy reforms and mobility trends impacting inbound and outbound talent flows
- Geopolitics, Crisis Management and Global Workforce Strategy: A deep dive into how shifting geopolitical dynamics and unforeseen global disruptions are reshaping immigration policy, corporate mobility decisions, and cross-border talent flows and how organizations can proactively integrate crisis management into global workforce strategy
- Strategic Solutions and Best Practices in Global Mobility: Applicable approaches for effective talent deployment amid global uncertainty
- Innovative Technology Solutions: Exploring the emerging technologies—artificial intelligence and digital immigration platforms—are revolutionizing global immigration.
- Compliance & Risk Management: Building robust immigration strategies that anticipate and mitigate regulatory risks
Join us for an exclusive opportunity to connect with immigration leaders and policy specialists, share insights, and enhance your organization’s mobility strategies in today’s complex global environment.
