November 1, 2004
Evolution, Enhancement & Expansion -- The Delta within the Pan-PRD

HKGCC and SCMP hosted The Third Pearl River Delta Conference entitled, "Evolution, Enhancement and Expansion: The Delta within the Pan-PRD" on November 1 in Zhongshan. The conference provided a practical approach to how businesses -- be they SMEs, MNCs, or locally-owned corporations -- in Hong Kong and China can actualize the benefits of the PRD and use it as a base to expand into the Pan-PRD.
