Thank you!
Over 300 delegates from 14 countries gathered at the ninth annual gathering in Beijing on 27-28 May to discuss the tricky balancing act between Renminbi funds and foreign funds on China's ever-changing playing field, as well as the exciting opportunities for domestic and overseas investors in the region.
The highly engaging, interactive and informative discussions among the most prominent and active LPs and GPs were enhanced by the contribution of three of the most eminent economists in the region: independent economist Andy Xie, Frank Gong (Managing Director; Chairman, China Diversified Industry Clients; and Vice Chairman, China Investment Bank, JP Morgan) and Fred Hu (Chairman of Greater China at Goldman Sachs Asia).
A big thanks goes to everyone who have participated in the remarkable event: our delegates whose presence has made the forum one of the must-attend industry events every year; our speakers who are the undisputed stars of our show; our sponsors who are leaders in their fields; and our event partners who have brought in ideas in making the event different!
We hope you have enjoyed the conference, discovered new opportunities and strategies, and met old and new friends. Wish us a good year and see you in 2010!
