Sino-Dutch Matchmaking Conference
06 Mar 2009
The 2008 Sino-Dutch Matchmaking Conference, themed "When West meets West…", was held last year on 31 October in Chengdu, under the umbrella of the "Go West" campaign.
The conference was organized by the Chinese Service Center for Scholarly Exchange (CSCSE) and Nuffic, with support from the Sichuan education department, and hosted by the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China (UESTC).
The event was considered very successful, attracting ten Dutch and thirteen Chinese universities, as well as representatives from key Dutch and Chinese organizations.
Speeches in the morning were followed by workshops in the afternoon, where insights and suggestions concerning institutional cooperation at the theoretical and practical levels were brought forward and discussed.
