Annual Meeting of the New Champions 2008 Roadmap, Community Activities and Preliminary Programme Annual Meeting of the New Champions 2008 Roadmap, Community Activities and Preliminary Programme Tianjin, People’s Republic of China 27-28 September Community Activities start on 26 September The Next Wave of Growth The International Monetary Fund’s most recent World Economic Outlook forecasts that global growth will slow to 3.7% in 2008 versus 4.9% in 2007. Record-setting energy and commodity prices, coupled with a looming recession in the United States, have created a headwind for the global economy. Yet, the highest rates of growth are now found in developing countries and emerging markets despite the fact that over 50% of global GDP is generated by the G7 industrialized economies. Growth is also shifting across industries as technology driven and energy related sectors expand in contrast to the current malaise in financial services. Faced with regional and industry cross-currents, companies looking to grow internationally remain focused on their navigation through a volatile global economy. Risk management is clearly one major focus of their attention. However, the mindset of a new champion is to see the opportunities beyond the turbulence. For this reason, the World Economic Forum will focus on “The Next Wave of Growth” as the principal theme of the Annual Meeting of the New Champions 2008. The Meeting will provide a unique platform for those seeking new opportunities to come together to shape and define an agenda of growth with fresh ideas, innovative business models and new technologies so that a shifting power equation does not result in a zero-sum, but rather a win-win approach towards future global growth. The programme will be based on the following main pillars: Going Global ; Managing Risks ; Drivers of Future Growth ; Technology and Innovation : The Next Wave ; and China as a Global Player . 2 | Annual Meeting of the New Champions 2008 Going Global Examine how “going global” may differ from regional and industry perspectives in exchanges with seasoned business leaders and policy-makers. • Alliance or Merger? • How Will Climate Change Affect Your Value Chain? • Business Models for Global Success – By Design • Navigating through the Global Skills Crisis • Design: The Competitive Edge for Global Growth • Negotiating across Cultures Companies • Sustainable Development and the Evolving Role for • Financial Stability in an Unstable Global Economy Business • From Global Growth Company to Corporate Global • Turning Strategy into Reality Citizen Managing Risks Examine how to create a framework and the capacity to assess, prioritize and mitigate risks associated with global growth at the company level, and capitalize and transform them into business opportunities. • Climate Change and Your Business • Global Growth at Risk • Commodities: Will the Price Be Right for Global Growth? • Looking beyond the Almighty Dollar • Cyber Security: Why Should I Care? • Picking the Perfect Board: Mission Impossible? • Ensuring Growth by Enabling Trade • Unsustainable Trends • Fears about Food Security: A New Backlash to • World Economic Brainstorming: Next Steps for Globalization?

Plenary sessions are designed to provide strategic insights and to raise global awareness on important trends and themes. The aim is to expand the dialogue on the panel to engage all participants. Therefore, there are no prepared remarks with most of the session conducted in a Q&A format. The sessions are open to the reporting press and are broadcast on the Internet. Boardroom sessions are designed to create an intimate and informal environment whereby critical emerging and strategic issues can be explored by leaders from various Forum communities. It is a moderated conversation focusing on a well defined agenda. These sessions are not open to reporting press. Briefing sessions are designed to provide in-depth understanding about new, emerging or complex issues in various domains. Discussion leaders are not only considered experts on the topic, but are also able to explain key concepts to a lay audience. Workshop sessions are designed to promote greater interaction between discussion leaders and participants on a compelling challenge or complex issue. They are facilitated group discussions that focus on providing structured interventions from discussion leaders, capturing direct feedback from participants and building consensus on priorities and solutions. WorkSpace sessions are designed to provide the highest level of interaction and exchange for all participants. A special environment has been created to encourage collaborative and creative solutions to compelling, and often complex, issues. A facilitator, together with a team of knowledge workers, will guide participants through a variety of design-oriented tasks. The knowledge shared and solutions created in this session are then summarized in a brief report. This report and related creative output are posted on a special website for future use. Networking sessions provide a moment in the day for all the communities of the World Economic Forum to meet one another in an informal setting.
