Rather, apart from the main event that kicked off on June 6, the festival will also comprise multiple sub- events that are scheduled to take place throughout the year. “The biggest difference of this year’s festival is that there are differ- ent topics and sub-events. We want this year’s event to be ‘never-end- ing’,” says Xu Qin, director of the Hongkou district commission of commerce, one of the main organiz- ers of the event. “This festival is no longer just a wine activity for distributors and agents to interact. We want to share the wine and spirits culture with more people so that they will have a greater understanding of these products.” Organized by the Shanghai Iconic tourist hotspot Municipal Commission of Com- merce and the government of Hong- kou district, the festival has attracted hundreds of enterprises from more than 50 countries since its launch in 2004. Besides featuring famous liquor given an injection of youth brands such as Wuliangye, Changyu and Cavesmaitre, the festival this year also invited a host of bartend- ers to prepare cocktails for guests. The famous Yu Garden is using pop-up stores and live performances Also present were vendors selling to draw younger visitors, reports in Shanghai. snacks like kebabs, DJs and street Xing Yi performances. ith a history span- local restaurants such as noodle ning more than 400 shop Song He Lou and steamed- years, Yu Garden has bun shop Nanxiang Mantou — the always been a popu- garden’s management has invited larW international destination in Tsingtao Beer to set up a pop-up Shanghai.

  • RFID and China
    RFID and China China is the manufacturing capital of the world and the largest market for technology. Currently, the country is home to 95 million Internet users. With usage growing faster then 20 percent a year, China will have more Internet users than any other country by 2006. It already has the largest installed base of both landlines (314 million) and mobile telephones (334 million). Within this economic framework, China lays claim to being the largest potential RFID market in the world. And since the standards bearer holds an economic advantage, Chinese political officials have stated that their nation needs to be involved in the setting of RFID standards. In late April, a group of senior Chinese government officials discussed their views at the RFID China Forum (RCF) in Beijing. The RCF was the largest and most influential RFID gathering in mainland China, attended by representatives of the Chinese, American and Korean governments. It featured more than 50 speakers from such organizations as IBM, Microsoft, Oracle, Savi Technology, Nokia, NTT Data, ISO, UID, EPCglobal, CompTIA and the Korean Association of RFID. The event also included five key Chinese government officials, including the three department heads of the Ministry of Information Industry, which is leading the formation of China’s RFID standards. Standards and Strategy China’s central government believes standard setting is a strategic activity to forge the following objectives: convert trading power to technology power; develop intellectual property (IP); and use RFID as an inflection point in China’s quest for high-tech differentiation and infrastructure efficacy in the global market.

    SIPA’s Entrepreneurship & Policy Initiative Working Paper Series By Accident or Design? Shenzhen as a Global Hub for Digital Entrepreneurs by Kirsten LundbergI NOTE: This case history was written as the basis for scholarly discussion and discourse. It does not advance policy recommendations. It is a history of Shenzhen’s evolution and raises such questions as: Can Shenzhen’s example be duplicated? If so, how? How much of Shenzhen’s success derived from its proximity to Hong Kong? How much from being a greenfeld development site? Did the absence of established state-owned enterprises contribute meaningfully to the city government’s willingness to assist private-sector players? In general, did Shenzhen’s municipal government lead or follow? Can government legislate innovation? Other questions undoubtedly will occur to readers; it is our hope this work and those questions become the catalyst for further research.
