Past China Forum Highlights
2019 UBC China Forum: New Generation, New Opportunities In 2019, UBC BizChina hosted the first-ever UBC China Forum on the theme "New Generation, New Opportunities". The Forum brought together 27 Chinese and Canadian industry leaders, 42 representatives from multinational corporations, and around 1200 attendees across Canada at the Vancouver Convention Centre for two days. Activities from the two days included interactive speeches and panel discussions from distinguished business leaders, a venture capital competition, a career fair, and themed seminars. Our first Forum was a trending topic online across our 7 social media platforms and various professional media outlets, receiving over 11.1 million views on Weibo alone! The four key topics discussed were Finance and Capital Investment, Technology Applications, Consumer Life Services, as well as Media and Entertainment.
2021 UBC China Forum: Resilience and Reinvention Due to the impact of COVID-19, the 2021 UBC China Forum was shifted to a four-day conference, held entirely online in March and live-streamed worldwide via numerous platforms. The theme for the 2021 UBC China Forum was "Resilience and Reinvention" and dived into the 4 topics of E-commerce, Technology, Ventures, and International Relations. With over 20 speakers and 4 panels, we welcomed 34,532 attendees worldwide to tune in online and learn from the internationally renowned leaders from China and Canada to discuss the present and future of China’s socio-economic development, and its interaction with Canada in a post-pandemic world.
We are so excited to share more information about this year's Forum in the upcoming month as we return in person for the largest student-run China-Canada conference in Western Canada!
