Created at a very timely moment when the drive for overseas expansion of Chinese companies is entering a new phase and gathering further momentum, The China Outbound Forum differentiates itself from existing conferences, which are more focused on promoting overseas investment locations. It is designed to support Chinese companies as they consider expanding their activities internationally – while also attracting mainland companies well established at the global level. The Forum is a platform bringing together Chinese senior executives and their interlocutors from foreign companies as well as from other sources of expertise and knowledge, with an agenda designed to cover the key issues and challenges that Chinese outbound companies need to address successfully as they move abroad.
Some topics on the agenda
· When going global becomes a “Must”
· China’s going global strategy: What does it mean for companies moving abroad
· Addressing the talent challenge for going global
· Managing the challenges and risks when moving outbound: from the jungle of compliance issues to the need to build the right resources
· Learning from success stories: How did some companies manage to make it abroad?
· Financing M&As
· What could be the impact of a China-EU Investment Treaty
· What could be the impact of a China-US Investment Treaty
· US infrastructure as an opportunity for Chinese companies
