On September 26, students at Brigham Young University organized an excellent professional event called BYU China Conference. It was well attended and the feedbacks have been enthusiastically positive. Presenters spoke from a wide range of experiences including US Trade Representative, Harvard China Fund, Utah-Qinghai Eco-partnership, Lenovo, etc. It used a format that was very interactive so both speakers and the audience were highly engaged. Dr. Peter Chan later said he felt very proud of all the students who participated in the event because of their ability to lead and great desire to learn.
