Building on the success and demand generated by the 2018 inaugural Forum, the second annual Cambridge China Forum will bring together our increasing network of technology and business professional to the impressive Wellcome Genome Campus on the 15th October 2019. Last year, more than 130 Chinese and British scientific experts, industry leaders and government officials attended the Forum. CCF 2019’s attendees can expect a more impactful audience and an equal ratio of speakers from Chinese and UK backgrounds.

In response to feedback from last year’s Forum, we will be adding more opportunities for powerful networking, and we will be expanding the trade stand exhibition. Also new this year is a business pitch-event that connects investors with innovative businesses. Directly following the Forum, the pitch event will be held on the 16 October 2019 in Cambridge.
