Welcome to the 2011 Asia Pacific Cities Summit

As Lord Mayor of Brisbane – Australia’s new world city – I am delighted to welcome the eighth Asia Pacific Cities Summit to Brisbane.
The biennial Asia Pacific Cities Summit (APCS) is an integral part of Brisbane City Council’s agenda to generate international networks and drive business opportunities throughout the Asia Pacific.
The theme of the 2011 Summit is ‘The Business of Cities’, and over three interactive and challenging days, world-renowned speakers will focus on sustainability, connectivity and managing rapid growth in our cities over the coming decade.
I continue to believe that bilateral relationships between our region’s cities are the cornerstone of economic and trade relations between nations.
They facilitate the exchange of ideas, sharing of information and successes, and create a blueprint for future prosperity and sustainable living.
I invite you to participate at the 2011 APCS to help deliver long-term economic outcomes for businesses seeking trade and investment opportunities in the Asia Pacific, and beyond.
 GRAHAM QUIRK
Lord Mayor of Brisbane, Queensland, Australia
