Entrepreneurship is booming in the city. It hosts about 800 international business events annually, and there are many good hotels for business travelers. The three largest service sectors in Shanghai are retail, real estate, and trade. Moreover, Shanghai has an ambitious aim to become a global shipping leader. Currently, its container port is already the busiest in the world. Shanghai is also China’s heavy industry locomotive, with Baosteel Group being the leading steel maker in the country. It is also home to SAIC Motor - one of the largest automotive manufacturers in China, which closely cooperates with General Motors and Volkswagen. Agriculture is another profit-making industry in Shanghai due to its humid subtropical climate. The fertile areas that surround it produce sufficient amounts of food for the city residents and the surplus is even exported abroad. This sector attracts many investors and takes advantage of the latest technologies to grow excellent crops.

The CBD cannot accommodate all companies that want to rent flexible workspaces in the business centers of Shanghai. The expansion of its borders is underway and is part of the city’s strategic development. There are 3 office areas that will merge with the CBD: Pudong Yanggao Rd, the North Bund, and the Railway Station. They are in close proximity to the business district, and the demand for office space lease is high here. These areas are well connected to CBD due to the extended metro Lines 12 and 13 and are only two or three stops away. Currently, the rent rates are lower here, which attracts multiple tenants. Another reason for the raised demand is that China Financial Futures Exchange, as well as the Shanghai Stock Exchange, are relocating to Yanggao Road. Business centers in these neighborhoods of Shanghai are becoming an increasingly popular choice for many entrepreneurs due to many business advantages.

In line with the “Outline of Shanghai Master Plan (2016-2040)”, the city government is making considerable efforts to turn Shanghai into one of the global leaders in all spheres. Unsurprisingly, it is ranked as the best city for foreigners in mainland China: over 170 thousand expats live and work here. Numerous multinationals rent business premises in Shanghai, and many offices boast breath-taking window views: there are 124 skyscrapers in the city. But it is not only about business: art, fashion, design, and cinema are also on the rise. The main places of interests for culture lovers are the Shanghai Museum, the Art Centre, the Grand Theater, and the Propaganda Poster. In addition, Shanghai is an excellent place for shopping with its many malls and fashion boutiques, especially along Shanghai's two Roads - Nanjing and Huaihai - the most important shopping arteries of the city.
