In the 20th century, China’s economy was driven by the development of its coastal areas. However, more recently, the central government has been pushing its 'go west' reform program, and as the gateway to China's western region, Chongqing is sure to thrive from its yet unexploited opportunities.
The 'Liangjiang New Area' in Chongqing will play a critical role in narrowing the income gap between the eastern and western regions of China. 'Liangjiang New Area' is built to meet the increasing demand from manufacturing, technological innovation, trade, and financial industries in China's western region, as well as direct investment from abroad.
Chongqing Municipality has taken the lead in organizing the first ever international forum in the 'Liangjiang New Area'. This event will gather prominent thought leaders and industry experts from around the world to discuss the unique opportunities that this area can offer.
The 2011 Liangjiang Forum is hosted by Chongqing Municipality, Development Research Center of the State Council (DRC), the China Council for Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT), United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the World Trade Centers Association Hong Kong. Jointly organized by CCPIT Chongqing and Administrative Committee of Chongqing Liangjiang New Area, the Forum is endorsed and supported by Ministry of Commerce of the P.R. China, the Chinese People's Institute of Foreign Affairs (CPIFA), European Union Chamber of Commerce in China (EUCCC), Bloomberg Businessweek, Tsinghua University and Liangjiang Institute.
