NEW YORK, Jan. 24, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The Suzhou Municipal Bureau of Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism is pleased to announce its headline sponsorship of IMM London which will take place 14-15 March 2022.

Located in the center of the Yangtze River Delta, approximately 60 miles west of Shanghai, Suzhou has been known as a center of arts and culture for more than 2,500 years.
