A New Era for Global Business:
Sustainable Growth for China and the World
Asia Society's 18th Asian Corporate Conference will bring together top business figures and government leaders from around the world to explore Asia's future in the context of China's growing global influence. The conference will seek to better understand the opportunities and challenges in China's economic development and to examine strategic models of sustainability. How can the region's explosive growth become most sustainable over time? How are China and other Asian nations focusing on environmental problems, and how can Asia come together in seeking green solutions to address these heightening concerns? How can innovative public-private partnerships help China and the region overcome issues of energy dependence and rapid urbanization? What is the outlook for China's booming economy, and can its trajectory be maintained? What is the role of innovation and entrepreneurship in preparing Chinese companies to compete internationally?
This year's conference will be held in Tianjin—China's next emerging hub and focus of the Central Government's third wave of economic development after Shenzhen and Pudong. Since 1989, the Asian Corporate Conference has attracted a combined audience of more than 15,000 participants from more than 38 countries around the world.
