I'd like to take?a moment to invite you to the Haas Asia Business Conference, happening this Saturday.? As the subject line says, online ticket sales end tonight at midnight. And while sales are going well, they haven't gone as well as we would have liked within Haas -- 90% of our tickets have been sold to alums and professionals.? So I'd like to take a moment of your time to explain what you will find at the ABC this Saturday. ? For starters, we have a solid lineup of keynotes:Ta-Lin Hsu, Chairman of H&Q Asia Pacific; and?John Wadsworth, Honorary Chairman of?Morgan Stanley Dean Witter?Asia.?Dr. Hsu is known as the John Doerr of Asia, and Mr. Wadsworth's achievements are already familiar to many of you. We're fortunate to have both of these gentlemen aboard.? More information is available at: http://www.haas-abc.org/details/keynote.asp ? In addition, we have an outstanding lineup of panelists, spread?across 6 panels: Biotech, E-Commerce, Entrepreneurship, Technology/Manufacturing, Telecom & Wireless, and Venture Capital. Some firms represented: NTT, Sun, Sony, eSamsung, Sina.com, TSMC, Ericsson, SSMB, and Walden International, among others. For more info: http://www.haas-abc.org/details/panelists.asp ? Did I mention the sponsor firms?? Our feature sponsors are MSDW and NEC Electronics; both will have booths on site. Other sponsors include Accenture, Chevron, Lam Research, H&Q Asia Pacific, Toyota, and TSMC. Why list the sponsors? We'll be sending them a resume book on CD after this is over. Guests who opt in to this can have their resume sent out to every sponsor and product fair firm.? Neat, huh?? I'll be first in line. For more sponsor info: http://www.haas-abc.org/details/sponsors.asp ? But wait, there's more: thanks to our Product Fair team, we'll be the first Haas conference to plunk down a car in the courtyard: the Toyota Prius -- a hybrid gas/electric auto.? 70 mpg, in case you're wondering.? Also present: Creative Technologies (makers of the Nomad MP3 player), IBM (Almaden Research Center), Kivera (location-based wireless services), and GetIT Multimedia. for more info: http://www.haas-abc.org/details/product.asp? (Worth it just for the Flash movie.) ? But wait -- there really is more.? An MP3 player raffle. Sushi. Dim Sum. Giveaways from The Body Shop, MSDW, Sina.com and Click2Asia.??And don't forget our very own Ipang Lin, erstwhile MBA01 who left to launch a wireless startup in Beijing. He'll be here as well. ? All this for the low low price of $25.? The kind of pricing that might inspire an investigation into trade practices, if you ask me.? Your promotional code: haasucb. ? As I mentioned, online ticket sales stop at midnight tonight.? We'll be in the courtyard tomorrow during lunch.? So come by.? Pick up a ticket.? Trust me.? You won't regret it. ? And for those who love to wait 'til the last-minute: we will have tickets available Saturday morning, at the slight premium of $30.? So save yourself 4.5 coffees at Jimmy Beans. Buy online tonight, or tomorrow in the courtyard.? ? See you then. ? ?
