May 24-26 Pan-Pacific Conference

Please visit the conference Webpage for detailed information: Pan-Pacific Conference

The conference is May 24 - May 26 and will be held at the Anchorage Hilton.

Changes in global geopolitics and technological innovations have created a completely new environment where organizations function and compete. In this rapidly changing networked global economy, Asia-Pacific has become the world's most dynamic center of international trade, management innovation, and technological development. As the importance of this region has increased, so have economic and political conflicts among the countries. Threats of trade barriers, illegal transfers of technology and corporate espionage indicate symptoms of continuing problems. The ever-present terrorist threats have further aggravated the situation.

The conference will serve as an important forum for the exchange of ideas and information to promote understanding and cooperation among global knowledge workers, corporations, and Pacific countries. Special plenary sessions and panel sessions featuring top executives and government officials will be held to discuss trade issues, management innovations, and technology-transfer problems. Numerous paper sessions and workshops will be held. Plant tours are also planned.

Distinguished scholars, executives, and government officials from Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, China, England, Fiji, Germany, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore, South Africa, Taiwan, Thailand, the United Kingdom, the United States and other countries will attend the conference.
