Chicago, IL. – HLB, the globally recognized design strategy and development consultancy announced recently that Phil Corse, Senior Vice President of Marketing Consulting Services, will be one of the featured participants at the upcoming China: Promise to Profits, U.S. China Business Forum presented by the World Trade Forum, the Chicagoland Chamber of Commerce and the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity. The event takes place Thursday, October 18th, 2007 at Loyola University Chicago's School of Law located in downtown Chicago.
Mr. Corse will serve as Moderator of a panel entitled: “Company Perspective,” which focuses on the experiences of companies doing business in China. "There is an ancient Chinese proverb that says ... 'In China everything is possible, but nothing is easy.' This conference provides an excellent opportunity to benchmark best practices of U.S. SME's (small to medium size enterprises), who are successfully doing business in China."
Mr. Corse has had a wide range of experiences researching, developing and sourcing products from Asia for over 25 years. He is a principle in the Innovation and Ethnography User Research practice at HLB, where his clients have included Hewlett Packard, Samsung, Motorola, Microsoft, Kraft, 3M, Abbott, and Fortune Brands. He’s also an adjunct associate professor of marketing at Kellogg, as well as CEO of Connectables, LLC, a China sourcing and trading company.
China: Promise to Profits, the China Business Forum will inform and educate small and medium-sized businesses about the Chinese business frontier and how businesses may
be able to take part in this growth opportunity. The conference will provide insight into the booming Chinese economy and beneficial business resources on both sides of the Pacific from prominent speakers who have already succeeded in China. This conference, geared toward Presidents, CEO’s and other senior management helps managers understand the balance between opportunity and threat by hands on training and best practices.
