China Professional Network ("CPN") is a close-knit, high-level cooperative union composed of every VIP member of China Legal & Accounting Network ("CLN").

CPN members are selected, reliable, professional, capable and well-financed CLN members. CPN tends to be involved in multilateral, China-related transactions that require coordinated services across multiple jurisdictions. Each CPN member can serve any company wishing to enter China in their specific service areas, and can independently handle any on-going projects and assignments at any time.

Upgrading membership from CLN to CPN is an effective route by those who are seeking to extend their services to the vast China market, yet retain their own independence. Access to the wide range of additional resources and professional support offered by worldwide affiliates will enable you to focus on your core services and markets, while using the resources of CLN+CPN to compete more effectively and confidently, as well as take advantage of association-specific, new opportunities that were previously out of your reach.

A CPN member can benefit from the CLN+CPN functions listed below completely free of charge:

1. Exclusive client assignment from CLN: CLN’s client or business resources are assigned to the most suitable CPN member only. Everyone can freely exchange business resources by posting his/her business miniblog on the CLN website, but only a CPN member is capable to physically “contact” the source, - otherwise you have to establish a business partnership relationship with each miniblog writer. In addition, CLN will confidentially assign work from our direct clients to the most suitable CPN member. By recommending a CPN member to the client this way, we ensure our services are professional, reliable and localizable.

2. CLN market promotion: As VIP members of CLN, CPN can benefit from CLN's VIP marketing services, including website promotion, instant web contact, search engine, group mailing, top list on CLN directory, prior recommendations and other online marketing. On the other hand, CLN offline Business Event is available every week in every major Chinese city. CPN members are key speakers at CLN events where they can promote their service extensively and intensively. CPN would benefit from CLN’s multiple marketing promotion efforts, and also benefit from CLN’s rapid growth.

3. Close cooperation between CPN members: CPN strives to bring all members to active client referral and close cooperation. We periodically remove inactive members to ensure our cooperation remains active and efficient.

This efficient resource exchange between members will definitely enhance your business opportunities.
