The Acquisition Closing Ceremony
On a significant day, Global New Material International (GNMI) will host the Acquisition Closing Ceremony for its strategic acquisition of Merck’s SUSONITY. This event signifies not just a transaction; it embodies a crucial step toward redefining the pearlescent materials industry on a global scale.

GNMI's endeavor is indicative of a broader vision that transcends mere capital exports and market extensions. The acquisition represents a rich integration of technology, branding, channels, and cultural exchanges that align with global standards.
Choosing Hangzhou as a Venue
Hangzhou has been selected as the essential venue for this historic event. Here, GNMI will also inaugurate its Asia-Pacific headquarters in Tonglu, further solidifying its commitment to harness local industrial ecosystems and talent. This strategic move aims to establish a “Symbiotic Engine” to fuel global industrial advancement.
A Forum for Insight and Knowledge Sharing
The event will feature a vital Forum on Corporate Internationalization and Cross-border Integration Practices, where industry luminaries and experts will converge. This forum is an invitation to engage in meaningful dialogue and insight sharing, showcasing how Zhejiang entrepreneurs can effectively navigate international waters.
