How Covid-19 and other factors are affecting commercial real estate in Shanghai and Columbus

On September 2, 2020, the Chinese Chamber hosted a panel featuring:

* David Goodman, Ohio State University Chinese Flagship Program graduate and Executive Director, Advisory & Transaction Services for CBRE Shanghai

* Michael Copella, Managing Director CBRE Columbus

* Brendan Murray, JobsOhio (Brendan's presentation on Ohio's SiteOhio program will be shared in a separate Chinese Chamber News item)

Take-homes from David's and Michael's presentation (attached below) include:

- It is a renter's market in Shanghai office space

- China's swift and serious anti-Covid measures have allowed the Chinese domestic economy to begin approaching normalcy; international business in China is still severely impacted by the pandemic and pre-existing political-economic issues

- Columbus has some key projects under construction that, when the pandemic is past, will continue Columbus' ability to attract and retain young professionals.
