CONFERENCE AGENDA

2nd Annual Global Private Equity Conference 2003 (Shanghai):
China And The APEC Nations

The massive purchasing power of China's emerging middle class is attracting global businesses including many portfolio companies of foreign private equity investors to China. New laws that address foreign direct investments offer private equity investors greater access to the Chinese marketplace. We have assembled a powerful delegation of Limited Partners, Private Equity Investors, & Industry Leaders from around the world. World-class institutional investors will give valuable insights and provide clear directions in global venture capital & private equity investments. Successful direct investors will describe their deal flow in China and APEC nations and discuss topics including: buyout, communications, distressed, financial sector, hedge, M&A and exit strategies, real estate, venture capital, biotechnology, and private equity partnership fund raising. This "must attend" two-day private equity conference will showcase 6 panels, consisting of leading Limited Partners & Private Equity Investors, moderated by top industry experts, as they review private equity investing in China and the Asia Pacific region, and make their predictions for 2004 and beyond. (UPDATE: Advance Online/Wire Registration Only, NO At-Door registration as conference has reached maximum seating capacity)
