"Hong Kong: Turning China into Opportunity” (March 7, 2006)

The pace of change in China is unprecedented in world markets. Long a major manufacturing center and exporter, China is now a chief importer with consumer demand growing at blistering pace. China is not a market to approach unprepared. Its size and complexity require a heightened level of commitment and a focused business entry strategy – particularly for small and mid-sized enterprises.

At a networking lunch held Monday, March 27, 2006 at the Omni Los Angeles hotel, Mr. Peter Woo, Chairman of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council (HKTDC) shared his vision on exploring opportunities in the mainland Chinese market using the Hong Kong business platform.

In addition to his role as HKTDC chairman, Mr. Woo is also the Chairman of a leading Hong Kong conglomerate.

Keynote speech, "Hong Kong: Turning China Into Opportunities", by Mr. Peter Woo, Chairman of the Hong Kong Trade Development Council.
