The Conference was formally opened during a presentation by Mrs. Chen Xiaojun, accredited political counselor of the People's Republic of China in Hungary , . The Counselor welcomed the conference theme in her address; as yet, she pointed out, "China is much more familiar with the world than the world is with China'. It is essential to know the country's culture and language in order to start a successful business in China. She then praised the inaugural lecture by Prof. Dr. Zoltán Cséfalvay, MP and State Secretary of Economic Strategy , with the title The Relations of Hungary in Asian Destinations.
