Over forty high-profile investors attended a conference on EB-5 investments hosted by Bob Kraft and agents, Andy Liu, Jane & Felix Wang of Donghu on Thursday, March 26th through the 29th.  Seminar topics included: the joys of immigrating to the U.S., a global survey of citizenship investment programs and the benefits of taking advantage of FirstPathway Partners’ Citizenship Fund.  This fruitful trip did not only yield several applicants but also served to solidify partnerships with our world-class agent network.

While in China, Mr. Kraft also enjoyed a trip to The Tianjin Economic-Technological Development Area (TEDA) on the Beijing–Tianjin Intercity Rail where he visited the expansion sites and learned about the ongoing city developments.

Bob would furthermore like to commend all of the staff at First Pathway Partners Shanghai for their impeccable service standards and hospitality.
