The European Union Chamber of Commerce in China is pleased to invite you to an afternoon seminar with leading China experts Vijay V. Vaitheeswaran, China Business & Finance Editor of The Economist, Rose Wang, Partner at Brunswick Group, and Dr David Ellis, Political Counselor, British Embassy in Beijing, on 16th April 2013, 15:30 at The Westin Bund Center Shanghai.
China's 12th National People's Congress Parliament named Xi Jingping as President and Li Keqiang as Premier as part of once-a-decade power handover. On the first press conference Xi Jinping described the 'Chinese dream' and both President Xi Jinping and new Premier Li Keqiang describe a Chinese future of a more streamlined and less spendy central government. China's new leaders promised to improve the worsening income gap and fix the pollution crisis in a push for the nation's "Great Renaissance".
Join our first edition of Capital Beat in Shanghai to analyze and discuss the latest changes in China's leadership and the implications the 12th NPC will bring to China and to China's business environment!
