The launch of a guidebook on hands-on information on doing business reflects Shanghai's commitment to creating a world-class business environment, said officials, senior executives and experts on Monday.

As part of the ongoing efforts to create a better grassroots business environment in the eastern city, a practical business environment guidebook was issued in Shanghai's Huangpu district on Monday.

"The guidebook is a practical manual consisting of 30 practical scenarios. It offers a panoramic view of the city's business environment, providing systematic information including market access, project implementation, production and operation, supportive measures, rights protection, and market exit," Lu Aiguo, head of the business environment construction department with the Shanghai Municipal Development and Reform Commission, said.

Andrej Jautze, group director of Asia-Pacific at Vaillant Group, said their company benefited from the prime business environment of Shanghai and the Huangpu district, where it is headquartered. Especially in terms of intellectual property protection, consumer rights protection, and community co-construction, related government departments have provided precise and efficient services.
