Bill Russo Chairs China CEO Roundtable at J.P. Morgan China Summit 2013

Beijing, China, June 4, 2013

Following a decade of rapid growth that culminated in a stimulus-driven surge in demand in 2009-2010, the China auto market has sharply decelerated, with growth slipping to 2.5% in 2011 and 4.3% in 2012. While China's auto demand will exceed the 20 million unit level in 2013, we can expect to see even more intense competition among automakers as they adjust to a new pattern while maintaining profitability. The aim of this panel is to discuss opportunities and challenges faced by different competitors as they deal with this “inflection point”

• Opportunities and challenges in luxury and imported vehicles market.
  
• Opportunities and challenges in emerging provinces and cities, as well as
  in second and third tier cities.
  
• Sales and marketing strategies to exploit these opportunities
  
• Strategies to diversify profit streams and maximize profit opportunities
• Panelists:
  Mr. Karsten Engel, China CEO, BMW
  Mr. Hubertus Troska, China CEO, Daimler
  Mr. John Lawler, China CEO, Ford
  Dr. Joerg Mull, China EVP, Volkswagen
  Chair: Mr. Bill Russo, President, Synergistics Ltd, former Northeast Asia VP, Chrysler
