In the past 30 years, China’s urban population has jumped dramatically and the government has ambitious plans to develop new urban clusters in the next decade, with an emphasis on the need for “humanity-centered” urbanization. Urbanizing China is a fundamental physical change but what does this mean for the economy, the people and environment?
This year’s theme focuses on the connection between CSR development and sustainable urbanization in China, and the role of multinational companies and businesses in rural-urban integration. Attendees from a wide range of industries will learn how companies and organizations are integrating smart, inclusive and sustainable urbanization with corporate competitive advantages to tackle urban and community challenges, as well as to drive new economic growth.
