The Wharton Asia Business Conference (WABC)
strives to provide a comprehensive coverage on current
trends in the dynamic economies of Asia, provide a forum
for in-depth discussion on key issues pertaining to the
sustainability of Asia's tremendous growth, and highlight
the excitement associated with new developments in this
region.
Originally founded in 1995 as the Asian Capital Markets
Conference, the Wharton Asian Business Conference has
enjoyed tremendous success and growth. In just seven
years, the conference has more than doubled in size
and attracts participants and speakers from across the
country and abroad.
This year's theme, "Exploring Frontiers: Confronting
Challenges and Breaking New Ground", characterizes
the many challenges and opportunity Asia faces today.
The Wharton undergraduate and graduate student organizers
will bring business and political leaders from both
sides of the Pacific to share dialogue about current
issues in Asia. In WABC 2003, panels would not only
cover current trends and developments, but also confront
endemic issues that continue to trouble the region such
as Japan’s economic malaise, regional trade agreements
and corporate re-structuring.
As an integral component of the Wharton Global Business
Forum, WABC has successfully brought Asia's intricate
business issues to the global front. We expect an even
higher level of excitement, publicity and success for
WABC this year. We invite you to join us in exploring
the business choices and challenges facing Asian nations.
