Under the patronage of the Monaco Embassy in China, this evening has become an unmissable event of the Monaco Yacht Show, which is a key partner of the event.

Building on this success, the 2018 edition of China Night has changed its concept to give it a more exclusive character. To do this, the Riva Tunnel hosted the private dinner of China Night organised in collaboration with RIVA Monaco Boat Service and the Directorate of Tourism and Congress.

This 6th edition, which follows the state visit of HSH Prince Albert II to the People’s Republic of China, is in a turning point in China-Monegasque relations.

As the Ambassador of Monaco in China, HE Catherine Fautrier, said, “Relations between China and Monaco are now very strong in many areas, which shows that the difference in size of countries is not an obstacle.”

Many partnerships have been created between the two countries, such as the one that links the Principality for several years with Hantang Culture in the field of communication.

In the field of telecommunications and high technology, Monaco Telecom has signed a partnership with Huawei for the launch of 5G in the Monegasque territory. Finally, in the field of yachting, the Riva house, which is part of the Monegasque heritage, is now linked to the Chinese group Wei Chai.

At the heart of these exchanges, the China Night 2018 brought together the representatives of these different entities around Chinese guests who came to Monaco for the Monaco Yacht Show.
