Daryoush Ziai, CEO of Schindler Group China, came to Shanghai and started working in Jiading district in 2015.
Influenced by his father, who came to China for the first time in 1971, he learned a lot about China when he was a little kid. He started to learn Chinese one year before he moved to Shanghai for work.
The opportunity for him to work in Jiading district became a chance to realize his dream and get to learn more about the area.
According to Ziai, Jiading district has changed a lot since 2006 when he first arrived in Jiading district, and now there are more new factories and businesses that have been established, and more new commercial and residential areas.
"The schools and hospitals make life in Jiaidng more convenient and enjoyable," he added.
"I realized that Schindler has made contributions to the development of the city by providing reliable, safe, and vertical transportation, which is also what I have been pursuing," Ziai said.
Jiading district is home to the headquarters of the wholly owned subsidiary of Schindler China.
