That event was attended by academics, industry professionals and representatives from software companies.
In another seminar on trademark management and strategies, hosted by the Wujing Town government, representatives from more than 30 smaller companies received financial guidance from a team from the Bank of China and from management experts.
A representative from Shanghai Guangwei Electric & Tools Co, a Minhang-based business, told the seminar that his company has applied for loans many times but had always been rejected.
Many banks prefer to lend to high-tech companies, leaving other firms scratching for capital, complained the representative, who declined to be identified.
The officials from the Bank of China said they would dispatch a professional team to visit the company and reassess its funding needs.
Several representatives from other companies said the forum had been helpful in identifying other sources of capital.
One symposium hosted at the Cangyuan Science Park brought together experts in the fields of law, insurance, finance, tax and information technology to provide one-stop advice for smaller businesses facing problems.
The events were part of a Shanghai-wide campaign to assist the development of small- and medium-sized businesses.
