On July 1, the delegation arrived in one of Guangzhou's sister cities, the British city of Birmingham. In partnership with the University of Birmingham, approximately 300 participants have attended the "New Guangzhou, New Business Opportunities" conference, including Birmingham business leaders and Chinese students and scholars from across the UK.
The University of Birmingham will build a research center in Guangzhou. The research center is due to open in September and has planned to launch 9 scientific projects in biology, medicine, new energy and new materials. In October, 10 students will take up the first scholarships for Chinese nationals to study PhDs at Birmingham.
The Guangzhou College of Medicine was the main role at the conference. It has signed three co-operational pacts: general medicine study with the University of Birmingham, preventive medicine education with the University of Wolverhampton and a bachelor-master-PhD education program with the University of Edinburgh.
The "New Guangzhou, New Business Opportunities" has been held in Beijing and Shanghai as well as the U.S., South Korea and The Philippines. It plans to go to China's Xi'an, Kunming, Hong Kong and Macau to solicit more investment and co-operation.
