The organizer, the renowned U.S. business institution Artisan Business Group, invited not only top-level representatives from U.S. Regional Centers and prominent immigration attorneys from the legal field, but also winners of the 2010 prestigious EB-5 industry awards. Among them, Worldway Group from China was the sole recipient of the "2010 Best Immigration Agency" award.

As a winner of a major annual award, Dr. Winner Xing delivered a personal speech titled "EB-5: Confusion and Choices for Chinese Investors." Based on years of observation and industry experience, he offered unique insights, analyzing for the heads of over one hundred regional centers present how to conduct EB-5 projects in mainland China, how to effectively dispel investor concerns, and how to successfully promote EB-5 investment projects in China. First, he introduced Worldway Group, a leader in the immigration industry, which was established in Hong Kong in 1998 and has focused on the investment immigration field for 13 years, with branches across the country. Over the years, Worldway Immigration has helped thousands of families immigrate overseas, helping them realize their life dreams of moving abroad, providing their children with high-quality education, and expanding their businesses internationally. For over a decade, Worldway Group's business has flourished and developed rapidly, and it has been repeatedly honored by the Ministry of Public Security, authoritative institutions, and the media with titles such as "China's Outstanding Innovative Enterprise," "China's Outstanding Private Enterprise," "Most Trusted Immigration Agency," and "Most Brand-Credible Immigration Agency." It is also trusted and highly regarded by numerous U.S. EB-5 Regional Centers, which have repeatedly granted it the position of Chief Agent for Greater China and the right to launch projects in China.

At this annual EB-5 seminar, Dr. Winner Xing analyzed in detail the current situation of the Chinese market for EB-5 projects, the psychological needs of investors, the factors to consider when evaluating projects, and the profound impact of EB-5 on Chinese investment immigration. He pointed out that the confusion faced by Chinese investment immigration applicants mainly stems from two aspects: first, employment risk, i.e., whether employment targets can be met after the investment is completed; and second, investment risk, i.e., whether the principal can be recovered. He also noted that after completing the investment, there are four potential risks, including whether conditions can be removed in a timely manner and whether the investment can be recovered. Therefore, as EB-5 Regional Centers, they must consider these concerns from the initial design stage, effectively design and reduce project investment risks, so that investors can invest with peace of mind and successfully obtain their green cards.

So, how can the confusion of Chinese investors be resolved? Dr. Winner Xing provided his answer: choose boutique projects. This is a major difference between the U.S. EB-5 visa and investment immigration programs in other countries. He stated that as early as 1998, Worldway, as a creator of industry standards, proposed that U.S. investment immigration had entered the era of "selected projects." There are now over 130 approved regional centers, and a large number of EB-5 investment projects are flooding into China, so the key to success in immigration lies in the choice of project. What are the criteria for Chinese investors to choose? He proposed four standards: the method and basis for job creation, the method of investment, the proportion of immigration investment in the project, and the project party's repayment ability and the transparency of investment information.

Dr. Winner Xing's speech immediately caused a sensation and discussion among the guests present, especially the chairmen of various regional centers, who queued up to introduce themselves to Dr. Winner Xing and strongly requested to cooperate with Worldway. The regional center chairmen and legal elites expressed their agreement and admiration for the new industry standards proposed by Dr. Winner Xing, and unanimously asked him for his speech manuscript! The organizers had to announce a 15-minute extension of the break so that everyone could communicate with Dr. Winner Xing in an orderly manner. After the conference, representatives from various regional centers continued to call and write, expressing their willingness to cooperate with Worldway and stating that they would re-select, re-design, and make adjustments to their respective EB-5 projects based on the new standards proposed by Dr. Xing.

Worldway has always advocated that client interests are above all else, and that sustainable operation requires helping Chinese investors find safe, reliable, and valuable EB-5 projects. Every investment project introduced by Worldway Immigration undergoes repeated evaluation and verification, striving to ensure that the project is low-risk and highly efficient, which has earned it a good reputation and outstanding achievements in the industry. It is precisely based on the steady work style formed over the years that it has moved and won the dual trust of partners and clients, standing out among numerous domestic immigration agencies and ultimately winning the sole crown of the 2010 U.S. EB-5 awards: 2010 Best Immigration Agency.

Based in China, the industry-leading agency Worldway Immigration will continue to uphold its consistent style, carefully selecting the revised investment projects of various EB-5 regional centers, and screening out boutique projects with relatively superior safety and profitability to help clients minimize investment risks and complete their journey to the U.S. quickly and safely. After the meeting, Worldway executives also visited several regional centers to inspect numerous investment projects.

More boutique projects, only at Worldway. New 2011 EB-5 boutique projects will be revealed soon, so stay tuned!
