“One Belt One Road” will bring together over 200 high profile
entrepreneurs, economists, government representatives as well as
investors from China to meet with Australian businesses, political
and industry leaders in November 23-25th 2015. Now in the 3rd year,
this forum has been held in Chengdu in 2013-14 and is commonly
recognized as the leading forum for high-level business and political
engagement in China.
The Fortune Forum has established a strong reputation within China,
attracting delegates from some of China’s largest companies.
This reputation has been echoed from abroad with Jack Welch,
Former Chairman and CEO of General Electric and Jim Rogers,
Creator of the Rogers International Commodity Index, attending the
Fortune Forum and delivering keynote addresses.
The largest collection of High-Net Worth Chinese investors and
government representatives to attend such a forum in Australia
since the G20, this is a must-attend event for businesses or
individuals involved within the Australia-China space. Australian and
Chinese delegates will participate in a series of seminar sessions,
corporate functions, site visits and investment showcases will take
place during the Fortune Forum, to be scheduled in Melbourne and
Regional Victoria. Australian Business Forum as the co-organizer
will conduct business matching for both delegates.

ONE BELT
AND ONE ROAD
Developed in 2013 by the new Chinese government led by President Xi, One
Belt and One Road has been the salient policy to strengthen China’s economic
development and its influence in the region. One Belt refers to the ancient Silk
Road economic belt covering Central and West Asia, the Middle East and Europe.
One road refers to the maritime Silk Road connecting China to its Southeast
Asian neighbours. The purpose of this framework is to diversify China’s economic
structure to live up to its Peaceful Rise advocacy, despite the recent slowdown of
the economy. It is believed that a total of 1 trillion RMB will be invested into this
initiative.
It is also the main theme for the inaugural the Fortune New Economic Global
Forum-Australia Summit in November this year.
