Recently, The9 has confirmed to take part in CGOC 2010’s Business Matching Day as outsourcer. As one of the three grand events attached to ChinaJoy, CGOC will be held from July 31 to August 1 at Shanghai International Convention Center.

As the earliest Chinese game company listed in the overseas market, The9 Limited is continually advancing in the development of client-based, browser-based, social, mobile, IPTV and all other forms of games. At this year’s CGOC, we look forward to meeting with foreign and local companies to have meaningful exchanges in hopes of finding suitable, mutually-benefitting partners. The9 is most interested in meeting with potential partners in the following sectors: art, flash production, localization and translation, and CG production.

As the key part of CGOC 2010, the Business Matching Day provides an opportunity for both the outsourcers and outsourcees to communicate and share technical and managerial experience with each other, making sure both sides can reach agreements on cooperation. The two-day event, on the one hand, enables both sides to discuss topics such as outsourcing project management, mutual needs and outsourcing procedures. On the other hand, it also aims to benefit all participants by facilitating substantial business cooperation between outsourcers and outsourcees.
