June 2026 · Shanghai

Your audience wants to explore China.

Help them do it without the risk. Partner with the first global nomad conference in China's new visa-free zone.

Here's the thing.

Your audience is curious about China.

The supply chains. The AI labs. The speed.

But they won't go.

Because it feels risky.

What if they could enter China... without a China stamp in their passport?

Shanghai just opened a special economic zone. Visa-free. No stamp. You're technically in China, but customs-wise, you're not. Americans can come explore without "having been to China."

This is the lowest-risk way to discover what China actually is.

Not what the media says. What it actually is.

3 days. Real connections. Real opportunities. Zero geopolitical baggage.

Two ways to "explore China"

The old way

Apply for visa.
Get the stamp.
Explain it forever.
"Why were you in China?"

OPC Summit

48h pre-registration.
No visa. No stamp.
Meet 500+ builders.
Access the supply chain.

Real talk.

China is positioning as the economic enemy in the West.

But 100 million digital nomads exist. And they're curious.

They want to see the factories. Meet the builders. Understand the speed.

They just need a safe way in.

"I came and was scared to come. China feels dangerous. But this zone changes everything. You can come for 3 days, meet incredible people, access the world's most powerful supply chain—and leave without a trace in your passport."

That's the story. You can be part of telling it.
