2. Joint CSA, CAST-CA (LA) and PUAASC delegation to The Fifth Convention of
Overseas Chinese Scholars in Science and Technology
The Fifth Convention of Overseas Chinese Scholars in Science and Technology
(Guangzhou) will be held in Guangzhou from December 28-30, 2002. Since its
first meeting in 1998, the Guangzhou convention has been an important open
platform for overseas Chinese scholars to introduce their projects and findings
and to meet potential partners and investors. About 1,500 worldwide overseas
Chinese scholars attended the fourth convention in 2001, increasing from 300 in
the first convention. In that meeting, 898 cooperation agreements or contracts
were signed.
The Convention of Overseas Chinese Scholars in Science and Technology
(Guangzhou) are co-organized by Ministry of Education, Ministry of Science and
Technology, Ministry of Personnel, Chinese Academy of Sciences, and Guangzhou
City. Being the largest of its kind in China, the convention is aimed at
bringing together projects and professionals of high and new technology at home
and abroad. To facilitate the attending of overseas Chinese scholars, the
convention will provide 4-5 days of hotel, all meals and transportations, except
international air tickets, to the invited participants.
The CSA, CAST-CA (LA) and PUAASC strongly support their members to attend the
convention and call for potential projects. We also plan to jointly organize a
delegation group consisting of the Southern California Chinese scholars who will
attend the Fifth convention. Creating the group will facilitate the information
sharing among the participants and get extra benefits as a group. If you have a
plan to attend the convention and are interested in join in the group, please
send your project information filled in a form downloadable from
http://pku.org/appendix/Guangzhou-form.doc by 9/30/02 to Lihong Yang
