ABOUT SATEC

The inaugural biennial Sino-American Technology and Engineering Conference (SATEC) took place in June 1993 in Beijing, China with the goal of raising the levels of science and technology in China, particularly the level of technological reform at Chinese enterprises. It was co-sponsored mainly by the Chinese Institute of Engineers – USA (CIE-USA) and the State Administration of Foreign Experts Affairs (SAFEA) in the State Council of PRC. The planning effort started in 1991 with support from the Premier LI Peng (1991) and the Premier ZHU Rongji (1992–1993).
