Introduction
China is a world leader in the designing, building, and using vision and image
processing systems. And although Vision Systems Design magazine was reaching
over 122,000 buyers world wide with its English edition, it recognized the need for a
Chinese language edition to serve the large, expanding China market. For this
purpose, ACT International Media Group (one of the largest high-tech media compa-
nies in China) publishes the Chinese-language edition of VSD—Vision Systems Design
China.

VSDC's editorial team is headquartered in Beijing, adding a balanced mix of news, tech-
nology features, and interviews to a foundation of VSD-supplied editorial focused
exclusively on the information needs of machine vision and imaging professionals. Our
editors address these needs through a variety of offline and online information products
that help vision and automation professionals develop and manage vision systems
today and optimize those systems for the future.

Vision Systems Design China is published every two months in Simplified Chinese. The
print version is distributed control-free to 12,800 readers; the electronic version and its
associated e-newsletters are distributed to 22,000 readers. Our website serves over 65,601
unique visitors per month (Aug 2020). And in China, social media means WeChat with over
13,500+ self-defined VSDC followers turning to VSDC's Official Account pages for the latest in
news and technical information. No other vision-focused media-provider delivers as many
influencers.

                                                                                                 Fre e
VSD China also organizes VisionCon—a series of conferences with exhibits located close to
vision-system suppliers' customers. In 2021, the conferences will be held in Chengdu, Suzhou,
Shanghai, Xiamen and Shenzhen.

WeChat
Marketing isn't about technology, it's about people. Technology is only
interesting, from a marketing perspective, when it connects people with
other people more effectively.

Nevertheless imagine a market (China) with no access to Facebook, Insta-
gram, or Twitter. And imagine that more than half of those people are using
one online social service to chat and share with friends, read news, play
games, track their fitness goals, make voice and video calls, shop online,
and even pay for lunch. That's WeChat.

Because WeChat is so deeply embedded in people’s lives, companies—even
technical companies—use WeChat as a way of gaining a foothold in the
Chinese market.

VSDC's WeChat channel has already opened the door for you to effectively
reach a self-defined audience of VSDC followers who are interested in receiv-
ing the latest technology information from VSD, VSDC, and VisionCon.

Within our WeChat environment you can
• Deliver messages to customers promoting tech articles, new product
  launch information
• Use the site as a recruitment tool
• Deliver banner-like ads to be used as page breaks between articles sent by
  WeChat
• Set up customized WeChat programs
