Co-hosted by the Southern Vietnamese Province Binh Duong and the China Federation of Industrial Economics, the first day of the meeting brought together 300 of the most senior members of the Horasis Visions Community, including some of China’s and Vietnam’s best known business leaders.
The meeting is the foremost annual gathering of Chinese business leaders and their global counterparts.
Dr. Frank-Jürgen Richter, who founded Horasis, is a German entrepreneur and the Chairman of Horasis. He has served in that role since he founded the organization in 2005 – building it into today’s global platform for cooperation between emerging and developed markets.
Said Brian Young, Assistant Professor at the University of Hong Kong, “Many thanks to Frank-Jürgen Richter for the kind invitation. It was a terrific honour and pleasure to moderate and speak on such a distinguished panel for the hugely successful Horasis China Conference in Binh Duong. I was joined by excellent interlocutors in Akira Tsuchiya (President, The Global Institute), Zhang Ran (Assistant Professor, Durham University), and Urs Unkauf (Federal Managing Director, German Federal Association for Economic Development and Foreign Trade), in a wide-ranging conversation that took us from the role of archaeology in informing contemporary geopolitical analysis, to Sino-Japanese-American people-to-people exchanges, from the Thai Kra water canal to the friction between bottom-up and top-down growth in countries trying to escape the mid-income trap.”
Horasis hosts the yearly Horasis Global Meeting as well as the Horasis India Meeting, Horasis China Meeting and the Horasis Asia Meeting.
