Contacts between Östergötland in Sweden and Jiangsu in China
The contacts between the Provincial Government of Östergötland and the Provincial People’s Government in the province of Jiangsu started in 1995. In 1999 an Agreement of Establishment of Friendship Relationship was signed between the two provinces with the aim to promote common prosperity and development, and the contacts have increased steadily since then.
During 1996 to 2008 the Governor of Östergötland headed eight business delegations to Jiangsu. During these years more than twenty Jiangsu delegations, headed by important representatives from the Provincial People’s Government, have visited Östergötland. Contacts have been exchanged in various fields such as trade and industry, science and technology, education and social planning. In 2009 a Memorandum of Cleantech Cooperation was signed between Östergötland and the Jiangsu city of Wuxi.
