The HSBC Trade Connections Conference

Speaking about China’s second cities, Richard Cant will discuss "the new kids on the block,” answering questions such as:

• Is it time for China’s big four cities to take a breath while a younger breed of up-coming cities steal the limelight with their remarkable economic rise?
• What’s making these cities suddenly so attractive?
• Where is the opportunity for foreign companies? Infrastructure? Lower labour costs? Companies that are yet to connect with international partners?
• What can foreign businesses do to make themselves known in these new emerging regions?
