China
International Steel Congress, organized by CISA
and MC-CCPIT once every two years, is a high-level
conference focusing on the profound, overall and
strategic issues facing the steel industry. Since
its birth in 2000, the congress has been successfully
held for five times and has become one of the most
important steel events in the world.
The
year 2010, marking the ten-year anniversary of the
congress and the end of the first decade of the
new millennium, will be an extremely important year
of transformation to adapt to the changed post-crisis
landscape. In the first decade of the new millennium,great
changes have taken place in politics, economy and
society along with the deepened development of globalization,
information technology and the new round of science
and technology revolution.Saving energy and resources,
preserving ecological environment and curbing climate
change have become the common understanding of the
human being amid the continued economic booms around
the world. The financial and economic crisis, however,
reveals huge hidden risks in the process of fast
economic growth and social transformation and warns
that all countries and industries must step up their
efforts to explore ways of sustainable development.
The
6th China International Steel Congress, to be held
with the theme Development Strategies in the Post
crisis Era, will call on the industry leaders to
review the steel development in the last ten years,
analyze the impacts of the financial crisis and
identify development strategies in the coming five
to ten years. The main topics of the congress include
Consolidation, Management Change, Technology Innovation
and Human Resource Development,which we believe
are the keys for the world steel industry to respond
to the challenges of the financial crisis and the
climate change. The congress will consist of a Plenary
Session including keynote speeches and panel discussions
from 9 to 10 May and the Technical Seminars from
11 to 12 May. The speakers invited to the plenary
session include the leaders of China Iron and Steel
Association, the Chinese Society for Metals, the
China Academy of Engineering, the Development Research
Center of China and the Chairmen and CEOs of the
world leading steel producers including Arcelormittal,
Nippon Steel, POSCO, US Steel, Baosteel, Ansteel,
WISCO, Shougang, Shasteel and Taiyuan Steel, etc.
The Technical Seminars, held in conjunction with
Metal+Metallurgy Expo 2010, will present innovative
technologies covering the whole steel production
process but focusing particularly on energy saving
and environmental protection.
