John Rockwell and Damien Yeung are co-organizers of this annual senior-level industry event!

Working with our partner Chemical Industry Roundtables, Damien and I travelled to Xi’an China for the 2013 China Petroleum and Chemical International Conference. More than 800 delegates heard presentations from top chemical industry executives from China and abroad.

The event was held in Xi’an at the Shannxi Provincial Governments’ “guesthouse”, a large complex of conference facilities and hotel rooms. The facilities were first-rate and extensive, allowing for the organizers from the CPCIF to showcase sponsors and presentations very effectively.

Effective partnership grows event 300%

Starting in 2010, IHS Chemical Week partnered with the Chinese Petroleum and Chemical Industrial Federation (CPCIF) and The Tianjin Municipal government on a 3 day conference and roundtable for Chinese and international chemical executives.

My team and I managed sponsorship sales; attendee marketing and on-site management, growing the event from 400 attendees in 2010 to more than 1,700 in 2011.
