For Rolls-Royce, nation 'key to driving biz growth'

British industrial conglomerate Rolls-Royce said while geopolitical tensions present challenges, it remains steadfast in its commitment to the China market.

China has been an important ecosystem for the company, and it is confident in the country's future innovation capabilities. Across its different business divisions, Rolls-Royce has more than 50 suppliers in China that support civil and power system businesses, and they have delivered parts for both global and local businesses.

Operating in China — its third-largest single country market — for over 60 years, Rolls-Royce said it has adapted to a very resilient and prudent strategy in China, and it enabled a balanced and globally competitive environment.
