Dear VDMA member,

Thank you for participating in our VDMA China Business Climate Survey – Autumn 2025.

We are currently analyzing the results and are pleased to invite you to an exclusive presentation session on Nov 14, where we will share key findings and insights.

Join us to gain valuable insights into the current business landscape in China, as viewed through the eyes of our member companies operating on-site. In total, 235 VDMA members have shared their perspectives on the current business environment in China and their expectations for the next months. It will be interesting to see which sectors are performing particularly well, and take a closer look at how the year has developed in terms of overall business growth, order intake, and capacity utilization.

In addition, we will highlight one of our most significant customer industries: the automotive sector. Key topics will include the latest trends in domestic and export demand, new development trends with regards to fighting involution and overcapacity. This focused deep dive will help illustrate both the challenges and emerging opportunities for machinery and equipment suppliers serving this dynamic industry.
