Chinazone Dinner No. 1 — Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten, Hamburg, May 2026
OMR panel: Made in China is the new Made in Germany
A candid conversation at the table
Chinazone is the newest zone in the family behind Kassenzone.de — Germany's leading commerce podcast. Our Chinese name is 春秋 (Chūnqiū, 'Spring and Autumn'): our first dinner took place at Hamburg's Hotel Vier Jahreszeiten — the Four Seasons — and in Chinese, the passing of the seasons also names one of the great eras of Chinese history. Two names, one idea: the best market-entry advice doesn't come from consultants' slides. It comes from people who have already done it, at a table where everyone speaks openly.
