CITIES
More that 50 per cent of the world's population now live in urban areas and the pressures on infrastructure and well-being are immense. The growing population and processes of urbanisation on our planet offer huge opportunities for design, innovation and sustainable development.
CLIMATE
Population growth and increases in wealth put pressure on our resources and have a negative impact on our climate. The challenges posed by climate change and the decline of resources need to be resolved.
KNOWLEDGE
Knowledge and service based industries have become the key factor for growth and success. Web based technologies and the free flow of information accelerate this process. The development of knowledge economies is the future.
CHINA
China will be the economic powerhouse of the 21st century. China is changing from a 'work bench' economy to a smart economy with a very strong consumer base.
SHANGHAI IN DEPTH
Shanghai in Depth is a series of events hosted by the Shanghai Association for Science and Technology (SAST) and organised by thequietriot.com during World Expo 2010. We will bring together business and innovation leaders from Europe and Shanghai.
The development of our cities, the climate and our knowledge economies offer huge business opportunities and potentials for joint ventures and co-operations in China, which we will explore.
