1993
In 1993 the Pacific Rim Forum hosted over 450 delegates
in Indonesia - which was at the time acknowledged as one of the most important
and rapidly changing markets in Asia. Key issues debated at this
regionally focused Forum included:
- The "Third Circle" concept:
Better sequencing its strategic implications
- Vision/Strategy/Structure/People and
Staffing
- Recognising Asia's increasing and
inherent economic sustainability
- Managing the Region as a Region
("from Sapporo to Christchurch")
- Adopting the most appropriate corporate
positioning and structure
- Bringing greater functional
excellence to strategic alliances and joint ventures
- Recruiting, training
and retaining the "right" people
- Developing the "New
Asian Manager"
- Creating more effective
regional strategies for product innovation and development
- Overcoming the growing
infrastructure hurdle

"The 1993 Pacific Rim Forum
proved to be a valuable experience and allowed me to develop
a greater understanding of the many issues that are making the
Pacific Rim the most important growth area in the world today.
I thought it was an excellent opportunity to meet a number of
interesting individuals from the region and the materials provided
at the Forum also proved to be very useful to the rest of our
organisation."

"This has been the finest
meeting I have attended anywhere in the world both organisationally
and in a substantive sense. I came away enriched with additional
information and seeing the contacts established and being established;
it's one of the most important events one could go through in
their professional life."
Andreas Van Agt
EC Ambassador to the USA and former Prime
Minister for Holland (1992 & 1993 Pacific Rim Forum) |
"The Region's premier event
in getting all the right people together to discuss the right
issues that affect all of us, no matter what our business or
enterprise. A truly value-added experience."
