London attracted 15% of all Chinese FDI into Europe since 2002, the highest share for any European city.<\/p>\n<p>\"London is seen by Chinese companies as a natural base for expanding into the wider European, African and Middle East markets\", said Michael Charlton Think London's Chief Executive. \"Over the past four years, London has attracted four times as many Chinese FDI projects as Hamburg or Paris.\"<\/p>\n<p>In an effort to help more Chinese companies expand into London, Think London recently opened an office in Beijing.
