Cambridge, Mass., March 16, 2015, — At the 2014 Asia-Pacific Economic Co-operation (APEC) summit, U.S. and China acknowledged that economic relation is at the core of the U.S.-China bilateral relationship. U.S. and China are committed to pursuing policies that promote more open and market-driven international trade and investment. Two countries are working together to address global economic challenges, deepen the cooperation under the framework of the G20, and strengthen the rules-based international economic system.
Based on this theme, Harvard US-China Economic Interaction Council (HUCEIC) will host the Harvard US-China Economic Forum (HUCEF) in March 2015 to break the borders of China and US, cross the generation gap, and blend the crystals and wisdom of various fields and industries to encourage entrepreneurs to communicate, increase mutual understanding and pursue potential collaborations.
A brainstorming gala that envisions a better future for Sino-US business
The forum promotes business interactions between entrepreneurs in the U.S. and China through keynote speech, panels, and guided network sections. Speakers would mainly involve business professors and researchers, entrepreneurs, and second-generation entrepreneurs in the U.S. and China.
A resource platform that brings potential collaborations
The forum will provide a platform of potential entrepreneur partners and resources. The forum aims at helping the young people from simply networking to project seeding as an effective way to be future entrepreneurs.
A group of talents that focus on execution
The forum is about both speakers and delegates. Only those well-planned projects and proper understanding of the objective would be invited because the forum is not just another sit-back-and-relax forum; but require high participation and contribution from the delegates.
