Through partnerships with international component suppliers and Chinese manufacturers, WINEX promotes technology transfer and supply chain development. The company also welcomes European engineering interns to Shanghai, strengthening international talent exchange and connecting global expertise with Chinese manufacturing excellence.

Gonvvama combines advanced automotive technology with a commitment to greener manufacturing in China. Its Shenyang, Loudi and Changshu plants have earned National Green Factory certification, while Changshu achieved carbon neutrality in 2024, followed by Shenyang in 2025. These milestones have attracted coverage from Chinese industry and regional media, as well as recognition from government and diplomatic representatives.

Through its “Power of Less™” solution, Gonvvama uses ArcelorMittal's patented laser technologies to combine automotive components into lighter, safer structures. By June 2026, 13 products had received carbon footprint audit certifications, strengthening its position in China's new-energy vehicle supply chain.

As a joint venture of ArcelorMittal, Hunan Iron and Steel Group and Gonvarri, Gonvvama connects international expertise with China's dual-carbon ambitions, working with shareholders, suppliers and government partners to accelerate sustainable industrial development.

At JET IT Services, we know that building a business far from home takes trust. For international companies in China, that means having people nearby who understand what matters to them and take responsibility for getting things done.

We build that trust in everyday decisions. Sometimes, it starts in the first meeting, when we tell a client they do not need to spend more. We keep our work and pricing transparent, sharing reports, engineers' service tickets and timely updates so clients know what they are paying for and how things are progressing. We take local laws seriously, because our clients depend on our judgment as well as our technical skills.

We get to know the people on both sides of the call, from headquarters planning a new office to the local team getting ready to work there. We bring global IT requirements and local needs together, working with teams and suppliers to find solutions that work in China.

For us, this award would recognize the care behind that work, and the belief that being a good company starts with being a company people can count on.
