Think Asia, Think Hong Kong
Organized by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council and supported by over 30 major US business/industry associations, the "Think Asia, Think Hong Kong" symposium seeks to encourage and facilitate US companies to diversify their business to Asia and meet potential partners or investors in a strategic, effective and efficient way.
When:
June 10, 2015 8:45am to 5:30pm
As Asia continues to grow in more ways and more places, US companies may benefit from identifying, even redefining, the most appropriate strategic approach for tapping extant and emerging opportunities in Asia, including the Chinese regional markets. In their ongoing quest for international success, US businesses, especially SMEs, are finding that Hong Kong, Asia’s top international trade and financial center, is able to strengthen and even fast-track their efforts.
Organized by the Hong Kong Trade Development Council and supported by over 30 major US business/industry associations, the "Think Asia, Think Hong Kong" symposium is the largest Hong Kong/Asia-US event ever to take place in the Midwest. Its major objective is to encourage and facilitate US companies to diversify their business to Asia and meet potential partners or investors in a strategic, effective and efficient way. In addition to a plenary session and a networking buffet luncheon, there will also be 4 concurrent breakout sessions. Over 100 Hong Kong and Mainland Chinese business delegates from specific sectors including food & wine, ICT, digital entertainment as well as an outbound investment group from China will be present at this event to meet and discuss trading and investment co-operation with US attendees. One-on-one business meetings with these visiting delegates will be pre-arranged for interested attendees.
