Strategy specialist Thales looks to expand in China

For French electronics company Thales Group, which has been doing business in China for more than three decades, understanding its markets and partners is one of the keys to success, said China Country Director and Vice-President of North Asia at Thales Olivier Guibert.

As a leader in both military defense and civil technologies, Thales well understands what China is looking for and where the country is heading, said Guibert.

He said that most of Thales's operations are "strategic businesses" such as aerospace, space, transportation and air traffic control, which are on the modern cutting edge worldwide and also for China.
