Programa de la VI Cumbre Empresarial China-LAC
- In an ever changing and increasingly
competitive world, countries’ sustainable investment strategies are
based on prioritizing the human capital variable, thus leading to
innovation and industry upgrade. This panel will look at ways to
improve the bilateral trading structure between China and LAC
countries’ to increase value-added and diversify investment relations
- Equity investment platform for Latin America and the Caribbean The
IDB and the Chinese Government are promoting the creation of an
investment platform that will pursue equity investments in Latin
America and the Caribbean promoting sustainable economic development
in the region. The fund is a concrete way for the IDB to play a pivotal
role in boosting co-operation, trade and development with China,
which became a member in 2009.
- Adding Value to Bilateral Trade As
China and LAC are becoming more prosperous regions and wealth spreads
rapidly, new tastes for high value added goods and services such as
high end tourism, garments and foods create a new and growing market.
At the same time, well recognized products and brands not only help
marketing efforts, but also add product value and enhance demand. This
panel will analyze the challenges and opportunities in order to
increase and add value to the bilateral trade between both regions.
- Financial Services and the Real Economy The
real economy requires well-functioning financial systems. The financial
services provided in China and LAC countries are still behind those in
developed countries like North America and Western Europe. In that
sense, the two-way collaboration in the financial services’ sector
between China and LAC is essential in order to achieve greater trade
and investment between both regions.
- Smart Cities for Sustainable Development Today,
achieving sustainable development seems more feasible than ever thanks
to new technologies in infrastructure. Nowadays the concept of
“infrastructure” is not only about water, electricity, gas, railways,
highways and air transport, but also comprises reliable broadband
networks and other telecommunication services. It proves key to help
local governments to identify their critical urban sustainability
challenges, with special emphasis on environmental, urban, fiscal
dimensions and the innovative approaches in infrastructure: “Smart
grids”, “green logistics,” and public- private partnerships for
infrastructure financing.
- Natural Resources and Sustainable Economic Growth Given the rising
global population, growing demand for food and energy, and the fact that
natural ecosystems are being degraded at an unprecedented rate, China
and LAC face both a challenge and a comparative advantage in their
bilateral trade and investment relations in this field. How is a
balance struck between present-day needs and conserving the natural
resource endowment for future generations?
- Trade in Services: A New Frontier for China-LAC Trade and Investment There is an
important role for Government and industry associations in enabling
countries to achieve integration into the global economy’s most
dynamic sectors, such as the global services sector.
- Connecting China-LAC SMEs Small and Medium
Enterprises (SMEs) are engines of growth and job creation but also face
numerous challenges, including financing, marketing and human
resources management.
