Dr. Liang first gave a presentation for the distinguished guests, in which he introduced the deep friendship between CVIC SE and the City of Regina, Canada. He emphasized that for a long period CVIC SE has been keeping a close relationship with the City of Regina and now we are cooperating more and more in business development, technology research and talents training.
Mayor Pat Fiacco congratulated CVIC SE’s success on RREDA (Regina Regional Economic Development Authority) IT Cluster Export Opportunity Forum and extended his thanks to CVIC SE for making Regina the place to make their North American office. He said, “We were here two and half years ago and we talked about the opportunity and how we can do more in Regina. And then the initial office came to fruition. And now with the huge success story in regards to the partnership with Paradigm and Access, I think it is going to create tremendous opportunity down the road; both in terms of development but also in terms of jobs.” Mayor Pat Fiacco felt glad to see the great progress that has been achieved today.
Mr. Larry Hiles thought it was complimentary to what CVIC SE was trying to do. He also mentioned the opportunities in the forum as “I had a chance to see the comments from some the people that had been there, and they were all extremely complimentary about the forum and your part in this as well. I think a lot went there not knowing what to expect. And I think that when they left they had a much better idea of what the opportunities were. ”
Dr. Jing agreed with the idea that this forum is the spur that will help us move forward very quickly to the world market. He wishes that both parties could find more potential customers and partners to achieve win-win-win effects for the common development.
