"Fushi Copperweld is extremely proud to be nominated as a Member of the World Economic Forum's Community of Global Growth Companies," said Fu Li, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Fushi Copperweld. "Our growth has been very strong and we continue to have high expectations for the future. The Community of GGCs is an obvious next step forward in realizing our long standing goals of exploring and benefiting from the vast growth opportunities our products present us with around the globe."
Established at the 2007 Inaugural 'Annual Meeting of New Champions', also known as the 'Summer Davos', the Community of GGCs are a new breed of high- growth enterprises that are global in outlook and capable of reshaping the global business landscape. The membership is made up of the 500 foremost global growth companies and Fushi has fulfilled the criteria to become a GGC Member, namely:
-- Established intent and capacity to build a global business
-- Extremely strong growth rate (72.7% in 2008)
-- Demonstrated leadership in shaping the future of their industry
-- Exemplary reputation and executive leadership
Fushi plans on attending this year's 'Summer Davos', which will be held in Dalian, China, on 10-12 September 2009. The Meeting in Dalian, China, will bring together over 1,000 industry, government and thought leaders to debate and define the course needed to relaunch growth. Fushi expects the GGC Community to work as a platform for influencing future trends and technology development on a global scale. Fushi also expects to benefit from experiences of other GGC Members, especially those operating globally, developing recognized global brands and managing extremely rapid expansion.
