PwC China has opened its first office in the
capital of Jiangsu province Nanjing, taking the total number of
offices in the country to 15.
PwC China markets leader Frank Lyn said that
Nanjing has great competitive advantages with its geographic
location and the fact that it acts as a major transport hub.
PwC China Nanjing office lead partner Jevens

province, Nanjing is a regional centre for business, trade,
finance, tourism and logistics.
“PwC has been doing business in Nanjing for
many years and we have a number of high profile clients in the
city. We are also actively involved in the city’s development,
having provided support to the organisation of the Nanjing Mayor’s
Forum,” he added.

advisory services to support Nanjing companies’ expansion into
international markets.
