Later this week I will be in Beijing for the CIBE Ethics Conference. Schedule and Internet access permitting, I will try to make a post or two from the conference. While in town I will also meet with some firms for possible company visits in June. More to follow on this upon my return to SLO.

While in Beijing have also put together a reception for friends of Christine Lu and The China Business Network, friends of Lonnie Hodge and David DeGeest and The China Dreamblogue Project, and friends of the Cal Poly Orfaela College of Business. These individuals will also be in town for the CIBE conference.

If you are a friend of one of these groups (or wish to become one!), and if you will be in Beijing on Friday, October 26, I hope you will join us.

Click HERE for the Grand Hyatt web site (which has a map and directions on it; and no, I am not staying at this plush hotel - I can assure you my hotel and budget is much more humble and low key!).

This is meant to be a low key get together and event. Just drop by and come hang out, meet some wonderful people, and have a good time. We are looking forward to seeing old friends and meeting new ones at the Fountain Lounge in the Beijing Grand Hyatt on Friday, October 26, at 9:30 pm.
