The International Trademark Association’s 131th Annual Conference was held in Seattle, the US, from May 16th to 20th in 2009. This year’s conference was different from the past ones. Due to the impact of global financial crisis, many agencies and companies failed to attend due to budget cuts, and due to the spread of H1N1 in the US, many participants cancelled their trips. Our company overcame a number of difficulties, and, under the support and encouragement of the leaders and colleagues of the company, the Janlea delegation attended the conference as planed and obtained a meaningful experience.
During the Annual Conference, General Vice Manager Liu Wei and the manager of International Department Jiao Yan participated in a range of activities enthusiastically, and utilized all sorts of opportunities to hold conversations with new and former clients. Through the Conference, our company strengthened our bonds with our former clients, developed the mutual understandings and trusts with new clients, and formed connections with potential clients, all of which created excellent circumstances for the continuing expansion of our business.
