The Go West Project is an independent and multidisciplinary think tank tracking the development of China’s emerging megacities. It analyzes both urban and social developments in the world’s fastest urbanising region.

Drawing on the results of this research, the Go West Project advises companies, universities and government organisations on urban strategies and development.

The Go West Project was founded in February 2009 in Shanghai by China correspondent Michiel Hulshof and architect Daan Roggeveen. They are working together with a broad network of scientists, architects, entrepreneurs, journalists and artists from several countries.

The Go West Project continues to engage in a wide range of activities, varying from the publication of articles in international media to the participation in exhibitions.
