OUT OF THE CONFERENCE ROOM

Shanghai is a fascinating and contrasting place that is best understood by stepping out of the conference room and into the urban environment. Our offerings range from three-hour walks to full day programs and more complex week-long trainings. These translate into different applications:trend scouting, innovation workshops and programs, team building, newcomer orientation or VIP visiting programs.

We asked Shanghai Flaneur to organize walks for our conference guests so that they may have a chance to discover this dynamic city. Shanghai-Flaneur definitely delivered, with 5 different themed-walkshops, that impressed even our urban design experts! Our guests felt these outings were a highlight from the two days.

Personally I really enjoyed it! I had never done this (SHANGHAI FLANEUR walk) before. I thought it was a unique and inspiring activity for the office.

The City Tours are a great way of gathering our participants and have them spend time together. As the majority of our students is usually from China and many of them are Shanghai locals, they are hesitant to join at first. But once they start walking and talking to the amazing experts who know the city by heart, they love it! We enjoy coming back every year.
