About CUALA
CUALA is one of the top ten societies in Cambridge University, attracting many students
from international backgrounds who are interested in business and law in the Asian
context. With more than 700 members and associates, we are one of the most rapidly
growing and active societies in Cambridge. Our members are primarily undergraduates in
either law or economics but we have smaller numbers of members reading subjects as
diverse as natural science and English. We are committed to giving our members the
experience and training they need to develop into future leaders in their respective fields,
and our Annual Conference is one of our major highlights of the year. It is designed to
enhance our members' understanding of the central business and legal issues and affairs
in Asia.
Our 2008 conference is to be held in the Cripps Court Auditorium, Magdalene College,
Cambridge, on Saturday, 1st March 2008 . Our formal theme is still under discussion
but it will focus on the emergence of China and India. Many current Cambridge students
are highly interested in understanding more about the opportunities and challenges
present in these two Asian economic giants, and we believe that our conference topic will
definitely provoke much stimulating discussion.
