2. FORUM OVERVIEW
Although the world's photonics market is still struggling, the China
market is growing steadily. For the years to come, there will be vast
opportunities available for the North American photonics companies
who want to invest or to sell their products into the Chinese market.
But the opportunities in China also present formidable challenges
for the North American photonics companies.
The China Photonics Forum 2003, as a special event in conjunction
with Photonics North 2003, is intended to provide valuable insights
into the Chinese photonics industry and market. Invited guest
speakers will discuss the business opportunities, government
regulations, domestic carriers, sales and distribute channels, vendor
partners, winning strategies, intellectual property issues, potential
risks and pitfalls in the Chinese market.
This event is also a must-attend networking platform between the
North American and Chinese photonic players and to help establish
a North American - China Photonics Corridor of exchange.
You cannot afford to miss this China Photonics Forum 2003 if
you are interested in doing business in China.
