Columbia University Chinese Students and Scholars Association
cordially invite you to the Second Annual Columbia China Prospects
Conference "Towards Sustainable Growth" opening at the Low Memorial
Library at Columbia University on Saturday, October 8 and Sunday,
October 9, 2011. We welcome you to engage in an educational discussion
with high-caliber panelists across the industries and participants
from a diverse background.
The theme of this year's Conference is Towards Sustainable Growth.
Over the last three decades, China has sustained a laudable GDP growth
averaging 9.9% per year, reaching a milestone last year by surpassing
Japan as the second largest economy in the world. Despite the adverse
effect of the global financial crisis, China has also managed to
remain strong, with a projected growth rate of 9% for 2011. Yet many
have casted doubts on the sustainability of China's impressive record,
and urged a major transformation of its economy composition. Can China
keep up its momentum of growth, and how? The 2nd Columbia China
Prospects Conference endeavors to answer these questions by fostering
discussion in the following fields: What strategies can be taken to
effectively stimulate domestic market after many years of setting it
up the agenda? How would U.S. and China work together to foster mutual
benefits? Where lies the opportunity for multinational corporations,
as well as domestic enterprise in the transformation of China's
economy?
Which industries would be the new driven engine of China's economy?
The Conference expects to host around 50 speakers, and to receive over
700 participants, including students and academians at Columbia and
other leading universities, as well as young and experienced
professionals desiring to deepen their knowledge about China's
transformation. The 2nd Columbia China Prospects Conference invites
you to engage in an educational discussion with high-caliber panelists
across the industries and participants from a diverse background. .
