Fortune Brainstorm TECH International 2017 | Fortune Live Media | 5 December 2017 | Four Seasons Hotel Guangzhou, 5 Zhujiang West Road 510623 Pearl River New City, Tianhe District Guangzhou, China

This new event will tap into the strength of two ongoing Fortune powerhouse conferences: our Brainstorm TECH conference, which for the past sixteen summers has brought together the smartest, most innovative people in tech, media, entertainment, and finance in Aspen, Colorado, and the Fortune Global Forum. The launch of Brainstorm TECH International is being co-located and timed to coincide with the 2017 Fortune Global Forum, which will gather the CEOs of the world’s biggest companies and top leaders from China and beyond.

Brainstorm TECH International will explore the innovation revolution unfolding in China, a trend that is not yet fully appreciated or well understood around the world. The old notion of China as a tech copycat nation is being rapidly replaced by the emerging new reality of home grown innovation and mass implementation in fields that include artificial intelligence, social media, biotech, fintech, VR, automotive, the sharing economy, and mobile platforms. In addition to providing insights into these fast-moving trends, this conference will introduce you to some of China’s most promising start-ups that might not yet be on your screen. Our program will feature the China innovators who are rewriting the rules and reshaping the landscape, in combination with tech leaders from around the world… from Silicon Valley, Israel, Europe and other parts of Asia.
