Asia Society Northern California is pleased to join with the Bay Area Council in hosting author and consultant Handel Jones, the author of Chinamerica, which has been called "a must-read for anyone seeking to understand the emergence of China as a major industrial power and how profoundly it is changing the world economy". The luncheon will be focused on Sino-American relations and how the two powers can work together to create a brighter future. Jones will be leading the discussion with his cogent analysis and expert advice on the subject.

Handel Jones is the founder, owner, and CEO of international Business Strategies, Inc., a market and strategy consulting and analysis company whose client list includes IBM, Nokia, Samsung, Sony, and Toshiba. He has been involved with Chinese government and state-owned and private businesses for more than 30 years, and is considered today to be one of the world’s leading experts in directing international business investment in China and Chinese corporate investment/expansion overseas. In Chinamerica, Handel Jones demonstrates that the wave of the future is cooperation between the two titans, not conflict, and how America will benefit from increased economic engagement and competition with China.
