Global trade management software provider TradeBeam has signed a 10-year strategic partnership to bring its GTM platform to the Chinese market. The deal calls for the China International Electronic Commerce Co. (CIECC), which is sponsored by the Ministry of Commerce, to market and sell TradeBeam's on-demand software solution to more than a million businesses.

"We selected TradeBeam after a very careful review and strict selection process," says Junsheng Liu, CIECC general director, CEO and board chairman. "As leading software and service providers in our respective countries, this strategic collaboration will propel both China and TradeBeam ahead of those around the world. We expect that as a result of the CIECC's national marketing and world-class infrastructure throughout China, this offering will simplify current transactions and enable new opportunities for companies across the globe to do business with Chinese enterprises."

CIECC has more than 100 offices in the country, and over a million registered multinational members that include medium-and small-enterprises across China.
