China to Shine at MIPIM Asia

September 21, 2007

    PARIS, Sept. 21 /Xinhua-PRNewswire/ -- The second
edition of MIPIM Asia, the world's property market in Asia
Pacific, has decided to highlight the Chinese property
market.  MIPIM Asia will be held at the Hong Kong
Convention and Exhibition Centre from November 28 to 30.

    A special event -- the "China Talents of the
Year" ceremony -- to be held on 29 November, will
honour Chinese developers and cities, while a number of
conferences will introduce participants to the many facets
of this very fast-growing yet complex market, with a
special focus on the investment sector. 

    "The Chinese real estate market is one of the most
vibrant in the Asia Pacific region, which is why we have
chosen to honour Chinese developers and cities in
2007," says MIPIM Asia Director Gilles Saint Georges
Chaumet.  "This year we will welcome leading property
executives from over 48 countries to MIPIM Asia.  These
executives are keen to extend their business contacts and
understanding of the dynamic Chinese market and MIPIM Asia
provides the perfect venue to achieve these goals." 

    Three thousand real estate professionals are expected
to attend MIPIM Asia this year.  With 9,000 sq. m. of
exhibition space, MIPIM Asia offers a splendid opportunity
for professionals in the Asia Pacific geography --
especially China -- to forge high-level contacts and
kick-start partnerships. For example, the three days of
MIPIM Asia will provide local developers with an unrivalled
occasion to showcase their projects to some 600
international investors such as Union Investment Real
Estate AG (Germany), Folksam (Sweden), Pramerica Real
Estate Investors (UK), Aareal Bank Group (Singapore), and
Calyon (France), to name but a few.

    From its launch in 2006, MIPIM Asia already featured a
number of leading Chinese firms among the exhibitors,
including Shanghai Harbour City Development, Shanghai
Caohejing Hi tech Park, Shanghai Zhongrong and Singwood
Development company.
