February 22 2006 - 11:52AM
PR Newswire (US)
BEIJING, Feb. 22 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Piper Jaffray & Co.
is pleased to announce it is holding its third annual China
Internet and Technology Conference February 28 - March 2 in
Beijing. The conference will focus on opportunities and challenges
in the China Internet and technology industry in 2006 and beyond.
Growth for Chinese Internet companies has brought both
opportunities and challenges in the past year. In particular, these
companies are seeing the increasing cost of success, including
declining margins as expenses increase due to competition. At the
same time, core market demands remain healthy. These topics will be
addressed in presentations and panels of management teams of public
and private Internet, semiconductor and hardware companies
operating in China, as well as presentations from economists,
regional and international private equity funds, industry experts
and officials from regulatory agencies. Among focus areas to be
discussed are the following key themes: increasing broadband
penetration in China and its impact for media consumption; the
impact of China's economy moving from a manufacturing economy
toward a consumer-based one; the expanding value chain of
semiconductor manufacturing; wireless value-added services
potentially reaching an inflection point and the growth trajectory;
the timing of network upgrades to 3G services and impact to
wireless handset and infrastructure suppliers; and the potential
for search in China. "We look forward to hosting our third annual
China Internet and Technology Conference in Beijing this year,"
said Safa Rashtchy, senior Internet and media marketing analyst at
Piper Jaffray & Co. "This is a great forum for technology
investors who want exposure in China. Given our focus on the entire
Internet and technology supply chain, investors will have the
opportunity to explore multiple areas. This year, we will also
introduce new and developing areas of interest, such as music and
entertainment, 3G wireless, consumer devices, alternative energy
and security technology." Companies scheduled to present include:
