To mark its first anniversary, the EMBA Alumni Association launched a three-day program of celebratory events for its members in Beijing in October. These included a visit to the Civil Aviation Management Institute of China and the Cloud Valley where alumni Bian Zhiqiang and Wu Man respectively are working. Renowned economist Mr Mao Yushi was invited to share his views at a forum on the future economic structure of China, while Mr Fang Chao, President of Beijing Guohua Real-Estate, gave a detailed account of the future development of real estate in China. Alumni had a relaxing time learning about wine from senior sommelier Wei Qing and, at the same time, enjoyed the good taste of wines from Château Laulan Ducos, as sponsored by alumnus Shen Dongjun. The 20 alumni also took part in a golf tournament at Tianzhu Village
Golf Club.
