\tMicrosoft announced it will shut down the Chinese version of LinkedIn this year, citing a lack of success in helping users employ the professional networking service’s information sharing capabilities.<\/p>\n

In a statement yesterday (14 October) LinkedIn explained it faced a challenging operating enviroment and compliance issues in China, where it has been present since 2014.<\/p>\n

LinkedIn noted it successfully helped Chinese members “find jobs and economic opportunity”, but had failed to replicate this “in the more social aspects of sharing and staying informed”.<\/p>\n

Microsoft plans to replace the service with InJobs, a set-up focused on recruitment but not social features or the ability to post articles.<\/p>\n

The US software giant faced growing criticism over apparent censorship of LinkedIn’s Chinese site from domestic politicians and local users.<\/p>\n

LinkedIn is the latest big-name western social media service to exit China: other services not offered in the country include Google, Facebook and Twitter.<\/p>\n

The company was acquired by Microsoft in 2016 [1] and halted the sign-up process for new Chinese users in August.<\/p>\n
