Airport City Development, Ltd. (ACL) announced today that it will host the 10th Airport Cities World
Conference and Exhibition (ACE 2010) in the China World Hotel Beijing from April 21 to 23, the first time the
highest-level event in the airport city industry will be held in mainland China.
Desmond Shum, ACL Vice Chairman & CEO said: "It is a great honor and pleasure for ACL to host ACE
2010 in Beijing. With T3 - one of the world's largest terminals - already in operation at Beijing Capital
International Airport, Beijing, along with its airport city, has become an even more optimal venue for hosting
ACE. What makes us more excited than ever before is that, in the beginning of this year, the Beijing Municipal
Government announced its intention of building Beijing into a 'World City.' With the world focusing on China
and Beijing, we believe that ACE 2010 will stimulate active discussions and new ideas, providing Chinese
airports with the best platform to understand and communicate with their international counterparts."
Both Desmond Shum, ACL Vice Chairman & CEO, and Ellen Hu, ACL Vice President, will deliver keynote
addresses at this year's ACE. Additionally, a number of domestic and international experts and scholars in the
field will participate, including: Professor John D. Kasarda, Director of Kenan Institute of Private Enterprise,
University of North Carolina; Professor Cao Yunchun, Director of Airport Economics Institute, China Aviation
University; and Tian Baohua, former president of the Civil Aviation Management Institute of China.
