IFoA: Chinese microsite to launch

Open-access content Wednesday 3rd September 2014 — updated 9.20pm, Thursday 2nd April 2020

Autumn's arrival heralds the launch of our brand new China microsite. 

It is specifically designed to increase our visibility in China, as there is a huge benefit in our being able to communicate in Chinese with a market of such strategic importance.

As a profession we are committed to increasing international visibility and engagement with a key focus on China and South-East Asia. 

The new China microsite is but one of the ongoing improvements we are making to our digital services and a key first element of our overall digital strategy, to enable users and search engines to locate our content.
