Join us on Monday, May 20, 2019 at the Harmonie Club of New York for our third annual SupChina Women’s Conference. C-suite executives and some of the top influential businesswomen between the U.S. and China will discuss how women are impacting China’s tech, business, financial, and consumer trends. Here is your opportunity to learn from, network with, and be empowered by the CEO of Thrive Global and Founder of the Huffington Post, Arianna Huffington (Keynote Speaker); “Tiger Mom” and Yale professor Amy Chua (Dinner Keynote) and more. SupChina is bringing together the top thought leaders in China-global business for a women-first event!
The conference will be followed by a cocktail reception and a separate gala dinner event to award a Top Female Leader and recognize the SupChina Female Rising Stars of 2019: early-career achievers working in or with China. The award judges are Wei Sun Christianson, CEO of Morgan Stanley China/Asia, and Merit Janow, dean of the School of International and Public Affairs at Columbia University.
