With the theme, "Strengthening Our Community, Building a Sustainable Future," the APEC Australia 2007 Business Summit was held in Sydney and provided opportunities for strategic engagement and networking with business leaders, international opinion setters, policymakers and leaders of Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Member Economies. The two-day forum formed part of the APEC meetings hosted by the Australian Government in 2007, which culminated in APEC Leaders Week and the Business Summit. In interactive sessions, panelists addressed some of the most significant issues facing the region: the facilitation of efficient, reliable and sustainable energy in an increasingly consumption driven environment affected severely by climate change; the challenges and opportunities for trade and growth in both the region and the world; and major international trends and issues for the coming decades and their implications for Asia-Pacific businesses. Sessions also covered the macroeconomic and financial outlook for the region; the role of education for future regional prosperity; and strategies and obstacles for facilitating skills, development and innovation within the Asia-Pacific population. In 2008, the APEC CEO Summit will be held in Lima, Peru, from 20 - 23 November under the theme, "Growth, Equity, and Sustainable Development: Challenges for APEC."		2008 APEC CEO Summit
