<h3>The 36th International Small Business Congress (ISBC) will be held from October 4 to 7, 2010</h3>
<p><em>Date: 2010-06-04</em></p>
<p>It is indeed a great pleasure to learn the 36th International Small Business Congress (ISBC) will be held in Taiwan from October 4 to 7, 2010.
<P>The ISBC brings together policy-makers and practitioners in the small and medium enterprise (SME) sector from around the world, to exchange views, brainstorm solutions, and help SMEs to achieve sustainable development. Through these activities, the ISBC has contributed greatly to the world economy.
<P>During the past decades, SMEs have been a major driving force behind Taiwan's rapid economic growth due to their flexible operations, efficient production, dedication to innovation, and ambition in market exploration. Their entrepreneurial spirit has also enabled them to secure niches in rapidly changing markets.
<P>As one of the fastest growing economies in the Asia-Pacific region and two-time ISBC host (in 1985, 1997), Taiwan is an ideal venue for the ISBC. The congress will be a highly successful and productive gathering. We cordially welcome you to participate in this important event to exchange views and experience, explore opportunities for business cooperation, and of course enjoy the beauty of Taiwan.
<P><STRONG>On-line Registration is available now!! <BR></STRONG>The deadline of early bird registration is on June 30. Online Registration is highly appreciated. If the online registration is not available for you, please complete the registration form and fax or email to the ISBC2010 Secretariat.
