Indiana has an existing office in Beijing which opened in 1987.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Since my initial jobs trip last fall, evidence continues to show the opportunity for strengthened business ties is ripe, so effective immediately we are doubling Hoosier representation in China,&#8221; said Governor Mitch Daniels. &#8220;Though the relationship is young, the dialogue with Chinese business prospects over the past eight months has been continuous and I am very enthusiastic about advancing the economic discussions.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Indiana counts China as its largest Asian trading partner and sixth-largest export country in the world. Export growth to China has accelerated dramatically from $294 million in 2004 to $930 million in 2008 according to a 2009 report prepared by the Indiana Business Research Center.<\/p>\n<p>This announcement comes on the heels of recent visits from the Chinese Consul General, a Chinese delegation from Ningde City and executives from Shanghai Top Motor, a China-based manufacturing firm the governor visited on his trade mission in 2009.  In March, the governor joined the company and its recently formed U.S. affiliate, Techtop Motor LHP, for a grand opening of the company&#8217;s 60,000 square-foot logistics center in Columbus.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About IEDC<\/strong><br \/>\nCreated by Governor Mitch Daniels in 2005 to replace the former Department of Commerce, the Indiana Economic Development Corporation is governed by a 12-member board chaired by Governor Daniels. Mitch Roob serves as the chief executive officer of the IEDC.
