CIEP INC. is the official representative of CIFIT in the US and has worked as a liaison with Keynote speakers for "World Capital Forum" and "Invest in Texas Forum" at the 13th CIFIT in 2009. Notably, Hayward B Davenport, Northern east Regional Director of MBDA, US department of Commerce gave his great speech "Build Globe Business Mobility -- Driving US minority business growth opportunity with China"; Williams Overholt, the author of "China's Rise" and professor at Harvard University was among many other world class speakers who also gave their speeches at forum.
CIEP also worked with the Texas governor's office, as a co-organizer and co-sponsor of the "Invest in Texas Forum." It is a good model to coincide the event with CIFIT to maximize publicity. Texas State Department of Asia business development, Dallas business commerce, business associations and corporations introduced the Texas investment environment, incentive policy and presented feasible projects for investors.
