INTERNATIONAL CAPITAL CONFERENCE
12th – 13th OCTOBER 2010

Hosted by Christine Lagarde, the French Minister for the Economy, Industry and Employment, the third annual International Capital Conference will be held in Paris on October 12th and 13th 2010. The Boao Forum for Asia, Cavendish Group and the newly formed Centre for the Study of the G20 will be organizing the conference.

France

Mr. Long YongtuZhou Wenzhong, Secretary General of the Boao Forum for Asia, and Long Yongtu, Director of the Centre for the Study of the G20, will lead 100 senior Chinese policy makers and business leaders to meet with their French and European counterparts assembled by Cavendish Group. ICC 2010 will take place at the Ministry of Finance building in Bercy, Paris.

ICC 2010 will feature keynote speeches, panel discussions, case studies and roundtables, with speakers from the highest levels of business and government in China and Europe. One of the largest Chinese business delegations ever to visit Paris will discuss
a number of macroeconomic subjects including the internationalization of the Renminbi, China’s relationship with the EU, the transformation of Chinese business, and China’s view of the Euro. In association with the Centre for the Study of the G20, we will be looking at the future of financial regulation and the development of Chinese financial centres.

This year’s event will also have a strong focus on industry, with roundtables on aerospace, automotive and transportation, at which senior French and Chinese business and policy makers can meet and talk about opportunities for co-operation and innovation. Sustainability is a theme throughout the conference. Sessions will look at developing low carbon solutions in the energy sector and how to finance sustainable development – areas in which France and China have a great deal to offer each other.

France

ICC 2010 follows on from the success of the last two years’ conferences in London where 100 delegates from China met with 200 western delegates. Alongside the programme of high-level panel discussions and roundtables, delegates at the last ICC conducted over 120 specially arranged one-to-one business meetings to begin productive new business relationships between Chinese and western companies. ICC’s move from London to Paris reflects the growing importance of developing and deepening the France-China relationship.
