“THE NEW LEADERSHIP: WHAT DOES IT MEAN TO U.S.-CHINA BUSINESS”
MONDAY, NOVEMBER 4 AND TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 5, CHICAGO, ILLINOIS
 
As China is asserting its position in the world’s economic and political order, US- China business relation is expecting to enter into a new era.  China’s new leader, Xi Jinping, has made the Chinese Dream the centerpiece of his vision for the future of China.  As China pursues this vision for its place in the world, how will this impact US businesses?  After 35 years of economic reform, China has experienced a rise in labor cost, which result in stagnate growth in exports, FDIs, and GDP.  Now it is looking for new technologies, industries, and economic models to re-energize its economy.  The rapid changes in China’s direction have created many uncertainties as well as opportunities.  This comprehensive conference sets out to address these issues and provide insight on future opportunities.
