Bill Gates has recently announced that Microsoft has plans to build two new research and development parks in Beijing and Shanghai in order to expand business in China. The parks will help meet the growing research and development demand in China and will help to improve Microsoft's relationship with its clients and partners.
This new project will help Microsoft establish good relationships with its trade partners and the Chinese government. Microsoft will be able to tap into the human resources of China and will also be able to promote regional prosperity in China.
Microsoft established the China Research and Development Group in January of last year, and the group chairman, Zhang Yaqin, said that China is embracing unprecedented opportunities and that Microsoft products made in China will show off Chinese originality.
Microsoft opened its first China-based office in Beijing in 1992, and Gates said that China has an energetic and quickly developing economy, and that the new parks will help Microsoft, the Chinese government, and industry partners build a more innovative system.
