China Sports Roundtable: Rapid Development and
Emerging Opportunities |
A powerful sports boom is under way in China, with
significant implications for companies looking to build their brands
with the country's enormous consumer population. The 2008 Beijing
Olympics are a major catalyst for change, and rapid development is
also occurring in virtually every other sports sector.
Speakers include Liu Peng, China Sports Ministry General
Secretary; Paul Tagliabue, Commissioner of the NFL; and Peter
Ueberroth, Chairman, U.S. Olympic Committee, among
others.
Separate Registration is required. |

Meet the New China: Cultural Changes, Challenges,
and Opportunities |
Since 1978, China has moved more than 250 million
people out of poverty-an accomplishment unprecedented in human
history. To maintain the forward momentum, 15 million new jobs need
to be created every year. During the next decade, more than 400
million people will need to move from the countryside to
cities.
Featured speakers include Hernando de Soto, Author,
The Mystery of Capital; Paolo Zegna, of the Zegna Group; and Zhao
Qizheng, Minister, State Council Information Office, among many
others.

CONCURRENT SESSIONS (I) The Falling Dollar's Global
Impact |
The declining value of the American dollar has had a tremendous
impact on the global economy-an impact likely to be even more
pronounced if the yuan is unpegged from the dollar.

Sachs Asia
Li Jiange, Director, Development Research Center of

CONCURRENT SESSIONS (II) Perspectives on Doing
Business in Asia: Understanding What Works |
Views on business and economic development vary from country to
country, continent to continent. Formed by different social,
educational, and economic environments, the approaches, attitudes,
and models that work in the West do not always translate to the
East. What do executives hoping to do business in Asia need to know
as they navigate this complex, nuanced business arena?
Speakers:
Victor L.L. Chu, Chairman and CEO, First
Eastern Investment Group
Andrew N. Liveris, President and CEO,

Ltd. |
| 14.10-15.00 |
CONCURRENT SESSIONS (III) Corporate Governance |
Reform of corporate governance in Asia has been ongoing since the
late 1990s. But given the relative newness of the concept to many
Asian countries, what does "good governance" really entail? What
barriers do Asian culture, ethics, and values raise to implementing
the kinds of corporate governance practices that are standard in
Europe and the U.S? What rules are likely to be adopted in various
Asian markets?
Speakers:
David Eldon, Chairman, The Hong
Kong and Shanghai Banking Corp. Ltd.
Fang Xinghai, Deputy Chief
Executive Officer, Shanghai Stock Exchange
Jiang Jianqing,
Chairman and President, Industrial and Commercial Bank of
China

| 14.10-15.00 |
(IV) Creating a Global Workforce |
To succeed globally, multinationals need to be able to manage
human resources effectively on a worldwide scale. Various models are
being phased in with differing degrees of success. Can and should
you try to create a global corporate culture? How does adopting a
global approach change the already complicated issues surrounding
attraction, retention, and development of high-potential employees?
Why do some see a truly global workforce-with senior-level positions
open to candidates worldwide-as the ultimate solution?
Speakers:
Diana Farrell, Director, McKinsey Global
Institute

GENERAL SESSION
(V) CNN Connects: CHINA RISING |
Televised live by CNN, and chaired by CNN Anchor Jim
Clancy, this session features a broad-ranging discussion on the
rapid economic growth in China and the huge gaps that remain between
rich and poor, city and country, East Coast and the West, and how
the leadership is addressing those
challenges.
Speakers:
Irwin Mark Jacobs, Co-founder and
Chairman, Qualcomm, Inc.
Peggy Yu Yu, Co-President, Dangdang |
| 15.15-16.05 |
GENERAL SESSION
ENERGY: FINDING FUEL FOR
CONTINUED ECONOMIC GROWTH |
Sustainable development requires a sustainable energy supply. As
the world's appetite for energy continues to balloon, driven by the
surging consumption of crude oil in China and other industrial
nations, readily accessible reserves are drying up. Known untapped
resources tend to be located in areas where extraction costs are
prohibitive. Is it time to get serious about alternatives? What are
the viable alternatives: nuclear, solar, wind, coal? How do
countries balance short-term need for energy to drive growth with
longer-term effects on the economy and environment? Is regional
cooperation on energy a real possibility, given different strategic
interests?
Speakers:
Chen Tonghai, Chairman & CEO,
Sinopec

Managing Director, Royal Dutch Petroleum Company

GENERAL SESSION
THE WORLD ECONOMY: WHAT COULD GO
WRONG? |
Not everyone paints a rosy picture about the current world
economy and the outlook going forward. In this session, we'll hear
three different views on what may be looming beyond the horizon if
we don't heed the warning signs. Blackstone Chairman Pete Peterson
and Morgan Stanley's chief economist Stephen Roach will share their
visions of an inevitable economic meltdown in the U.S. caused by
fiscal profligacy and the corrective action needed to avert it.
Noted business consultant C.K. Prahalad will look at the underclass
in India and China as a cause for concern and make a case for how
companies doing business in those countries can fight poverty with
profitability. Renowned Peruvian economist Hernando de Soto will
analyze why capitalism has failed to translate to other parts of the
world and talk about what actions governments need to take to enable
impoverished citizens to turn their work and savings into productive
capital.
Speakers:
Cheng Siwei, Vice Chairman, NPC
Standing Committee of the People’s Republic of
China
Hernando de Soto, Author, The Mystery of
Capital:

GENERAL SESSION
WIRELESS ASIA |
Phone, e-mail, and text messages are only the beginning for
mobile communication in Asia. Whether it's gaming, banking, or bill
paying, position tracking or appliance control, the services and
infrastructure available in the region are creating a truly wireless
society. How does the market differ from country to country? What
are the drivers and enablers of this wireless world? What companies
appear to be the winners and losers? What will China's imminent
adoption of 3G technology mean to the markets in that country and
throughout Asia?
Speakers:
Jim Balsillie, Chairman and
CEO, Research in Motion
Irwin Mark Jacobs, Co-founder and

INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS: MORE TURMOIL OR MUTUAL
UNDERSTANDING? |
Patent, trademark, and copyright infringement issues have long
clouded the global business horizon, leading some companies to scrap
plans for global expansion rather than put their intellectual
property rights in jeopardy. How serious and widespread is the
problem? What steps are Asian countries taking to protect
intellectual property rights? In what areas has there been progress,
where does more need to be done, and what is the likely time frame?
Speakers:

CONCURRENT SESSIONS (I) Roles and Responsibilities
of Multinationals: Social and Environmental |

CONCURRENT SESSIONS (II) Booming Economies and
Commodities |
One of the by-products of Asia’s economic boom has been a huge
spike in the demand for commodities. Prices have reached
unprecedented levels and show no signs of moderating. The increased

and have begun to influence domestic and foreign policies. What are
the likely scenarios going forward?

GENERAL SESSION
WILL ASIA BECOME THE FOCAL POINT
OF TECHNOLOGY INNOVATION? |
For the past few decades, the U.S. has been the
dominant force in technology. But with globalization and the rise of
Asian economies, the center of technology innovation is beginning to
shift. Engineers and programmers are emerging from Asian schools in
record numbers. While they once looked to the U.S. for opportunity,
they are now finding it at home. Multinationals are increasingly
locating R&D and development facilities in the region, and Asian
companies are taking stakes in Western technology companies-or
buying them outright.

CONCURRENT SESSIONS (I) A Looming Environmental
Crisis? |
Not everything about the startling economic growth
in Asia-particularly in China and India over the past two
decades-has been positive. Natural resources have been seriously
depleted. Escalating pollution has produced widespread public health
problems, mass migration, economic loss, and burgeoning social
unrest. Governments, NGOs, and multinationals are acknowledging
increased awareness of the problem and proposing
solutions.

CONCURRENT SESSIONS(II) Is the Locus of Medical
Research and Innovation Shifting to Asia? |
Throughout the last century, most of the action in medical
research and innovation took place in the West, home to the most
up-to-date research facilities and the world's leading scientists,
all funded by huge public- and private-sector investments. In recent
years, some Asian countries have taken steps to attract research
facilities and the scientists to lead them. We'll examine the
successes and discuss the opportunities and challenges for the
future.

CONCURRENT SESSIONS (III) Emerging Trade
Relationships |
In addition to the numerous trade associations already in
existence-with their varying rules and purposes-far more are being
contemplated or lobbied for globally. There are countless one-to-one
free-trade agreements executed or pending. What does all this
activity hold for the future? What would be best regionally?
Globally? For multinationals?

CONCURRENT SESSIONS (IV) Wanted: Good Management |
There is no issue more crucial to China's future-and nothing more
bedeviling to foreign and domestic companies doing business in
China-than management. It is the Achilles heel of Chinese reform.
Chinese companies traditionally have followed the top-down model
almost exclusively. To achieve success globally, China needs to
advance beyond this model and multinationals need to find ways to
build smooth partnerships within China. James McGregor, author of
One Billion Customers: Lessons from the Front Lines of Doing
Business in China, will lead an examination of these issues through
two prominent case studies: the CICC deal of ten years ago and the
pending IBM/Lenovo merger.

GENERAL SESSION
GLOBAL, REGIONAL, AND LOCAL
BRANDING:
WHO'S WINNING AND WHY? |
A global brand is an invaluable asset, but what is
the best way to balance a global vision with local know-how and
nuances? Increasingly, domestic "power brands" are challenging
global market leaders-and their aspirations don't stop at their own
borders. What strategies are being used to create powerful brands
capable of building loyalty among increasingly savvy and
sophisticated audiences? Three expert branders-Sir Martin Sorrell of
WPP, Meg Whitman of eBay, and Masamoto Yashiro of Shinsei Bank-will
discuss how companies, both global and local, are adapting to the
ever-changing tastes and diversity of
consumers.
Speakers:

Executive, WPP
Meg Whitman, President and CEO, eBay Inc.
