Kellogg Greater China Business Conference
February 14, 2009

Welcome to the Kellogg Greater China Business Conference of 2009. The leadership team is extremely excited to have the opportunity to host this event, now in its third year, which will bring together industry leaders, students and faculty to share their knowledge of and interest in doing business in China.

This year, the theme for the conference is From the World’s Factory to the World’s Innovators. In this “post-Olympics” era, China is not only faced with the challenge of sustainable development but also the task of becoming an area for innovation. While more multinationals have relocated their research centers to China and domestic companies are now developing their own patents, numerous obstacles still need to be overcome to reach this new innovative dream. This conference will provide a forum for exploration into these legal, economic and cultural challenges and a discussion of relevant strategies to overcome them through key speakers, interactive panel discussions, and networking opportunities throughout the day.

We invite you to join us at the Kellogg School of Management James L. Allen Center at Northwestern University on Saturday, February 14, 2009.

We look forward to seeing you at the conference.

Sincerely,

Jessica Yau and Xin Ma
Overall Co-Chairs
