    In the afternoon of November 12th, TDIA will organize
the "Seminar on Beijing Olympic Games and
TD-SCDMA." The Beijing 2008 Olympic Games is regarded
as a trigger of China's 3G service. This summit will look
into opportunities related to Beijing Olympic
telecommunication services. Speakers from government
bureaus and operators will introduce the telecom service,
market demand and solutions for the Game. 

    With more than a half billion mobile subscribers and
38% penetration rate, China is still one of the biggest
potential markets for mobile technologies and services,
especially for the third generation mobile communication
(3G). Regionally, Tianjin is one of the hottest areas in
China's mobile telecom industry. About one in ten mobile
phones in the world is produced there. Besides the huge
facility of Motorola and Samsung, ZTE announced a huge
investment with an amount of US$650 million in Tianjin. The
new project of ZTE focuses on WiMAX and other mobile
technologies.

    In order to boost the development of North China, the
central government of China launched a series of favorable
policies for the New Tianjin Binhai Area (TBNA). TEDA is
located at the center of TBNA. IMIE is the largest mobile
phone industry event in China, which is held by TEDA, China
Telecom Institute and other organizations. The show had a
space of 20,000 square meters and attracted more than
20,000 visitors in 2007.

    Speakers from Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee,
Datang Mobile, Anritsu, ZTE and terminal vendors will
introduce the LTE of TD-SCDMA, the end-end testing
environment, latest progress of the under going TD-SCDMA
networking in ten Olympic cities in China; and the terminal
options to visitors of the Beijing Olympics. Panelists from
operators, technology vendors, and financial organizations
will talk about TD-SCDMA's past and future. Q & A will
be held at the last section of the Summit.

    In the evening of November 13th, TEDA, IMIE and TDIA
will co-host "Reception and Salon for Mobile Elites
and Managers" during the GSMA Mobile Asia Congress.
The salon will be the best place to network with C-level
from the Asia mobile industry. Besides executives from
members of TDIA, senior officials from the Administrative
Committee of TEDA and other government bureaus, China
market experts from IMIE will share their experience with
guests of the salon.

    "TEDA is paying much attention to the construction
of the mobile communication industry chain at the center of
TBNA. Annually, we jointly hold the IMIE with some other
leading local partners. And the IMIE has been supported by
China's Ministry of Information Industry (MII) and Ministry
of Commerce (MOC)," said Jiaxiang Li, Secretary General
of IMIE.  "So both TEDA and IMIE have become shortcuts
for overseas companies to access China's fast growing
mobile communication industry and market. Now, we have a
plan to connect this event to more overseas partners.
That's the reason why we participate in the GSMA Asia
Mobile Congress actively. Besides meeting with our
potential partners, we hold two high class seminars with
TDIA for global industry people. The events will help the
industry to find a direct approach to the China
market."
