Asia Pacific Cities Summit, Incheon (Korea), 15-17 September 2009 15-09-2009 Introduction The Asia Pacific Cities Summit, a signature event of Brisbane City Council,
is now recognized as a leading business and government forum. The primary goal
of this biennial summit is to cultivate city partnerships and to encourage the
sharing of information and ideas between local governments, technical experts
and business leaders in the Asia Pacific region.
Description
As cities everywhere continue to grow and increasingly assert themselves as
significant driving forces of national economies, high profile leaders and
decision makers are now seen as crucial to make more vital and liveable cities,
towns, and local communities. Under the theme of 'Creative Urban
Development', the 2009 Asia Pacific Cities Summit will focus on the key
assets, infrastructures and tools required to promote the growth of creative,
innovative, sustainable and cohesive places.
Situated at the heart of the world's fastest growing region, Incheon is
undergoing a rapid and far-reaching transformation into a global informational
and technological city of the 21st century. This will be showcased in our Global
Fair & Festival 2009 to be held between August and October. With this in
mind, our city is particularly well-placed to welcome prominent regional leaders
and business people interested in furthering the development of international
trade and forging meaningful relationships between our cities.
