The European Union Chamber of Commerce in China in cooperation with the China Greentech Initiative (CGTI) is pleased to invite you to the Beijing launch of The China Greentech Report 2013: China at a Crossroads onThursday, June 6, 2013 from 16:00 to 18:00 at the Fairmont Hotel Beijing.
The China Greentech Report 2009 (released at the World Economic Forum) and subsequent 2011 and 2012 editions have established CGTI as the authority on China’s rapidly evolving greentech markets and a valuable resource for companies seeking to grow their greentech business in China.
The 2013 report examines China’s pollution challenges, the progress made in achieving greentech targets in the 12th Five-Year Plan, and suggests a new approach focused on measurable outcomes (as opposed to quantitative targets) for achieving sustainable development through maximizing existing assets and adopting integrated solutions.
Join us for a panel discussion led by Alan Beebe, CGTI managing director, as he delivers the findings of the annual China Greentech Report followed by a panel discussion with industry leaders, including Jose Martos, General Manager of Saint-Gobain Weber China. This event will provide a comprehensive outlook of the state of China’s greentech markets, opportunities for accelerating growth in key greentech ecosystems (Built Environment, Cleaner Vehicles, Energy Value Chains and Sustainable Industry), and finally an understanding of why collaboration is imperative to China's green growth.
