End Date 20th Jul 2012 5:30pm
Duration 7 hours and 30 minutes
Description Melbourne - Friday 20 July 2012

This conference will address the important issue of how Australia, and the region more broadly, should respond to the emergence of China as an economic superpower.

Rather than re-examine IP enforcement problems, the event will focus on China’s rapid emergence as a powerful and extremely innovative nation and the unique opportunity this presents for many innovative Australian companies.

The conference will feature Australian and Chinese speakers drawn from a range of business, law, economics and policy backgrounds.

Among the speakers at Melbourne’s event are some of the nation’s most insightful thought-leaders on the issue, including:
  • The Hon John Brumby (Huawei Technologies)
  • Professor Xiaobo Wu (Zhejiang University, China)
  • Professor Ross Garnaut AO (The University of Melbourne)
  • Professor Peter Yu (Drake University Law School, USA)
  • Professor Yanrui Wu (University of Western Australia)
