China Development Marketplace Reception Invitation



On behalf of the World Banks China Development Marketplace team and our partners, the Asian Development Bank, the European Union, the Ministry of Civil Affairs and the State Council Leading Group for Poverty Alleviation and Development, and in conjunction with the European Chamber, the American Chamber and the Chinese Enterprise Confederation, we would like to extend an invitation for you to attend a reception introducing China Development Marketplace to the foreign business community and other donors.

The World Bank and its partners will be hosting the China Development Marketplace (CDM) on December 7th and 8th, 2005, in Beijing, to promote innovative ideas on poverty reduction. The goal is to support civil society social entrepreneurs by providing start-up funding and encouraging partnerships so that their innovations on poverty reduction can become a reality. Finalists will be invited to Beijing to market their ideas and funding will be awarded in a competitive process to the most promising proposals. Should you have any questions about the CDM, please call Mr. Patrick White at 5861-7853.
