The fourth annual conference of the Global Chinese Real Estate Congress (GCREC), hosted by the Faculty of Business Administration of the University of Macau (UM) and GCREC, will be held from 3 July to 5 July, at the Grand Hyatt, Macao. Approximately seven hundred scholars and industry professionals from around the world will participate in the conference. The number of academic papers presented at the conference will reach a record high not only in GCREC’s history, but in the history of international real estate conferences as well.
GCREC seeks to promote the international Chinese communities’ research, education and development in the real estate industry and in related fields. In line with its objectives, this conference will serve as a platform for exchange of ideas concerning the latest development and implementation in the real estate academic and professional arenas for scholars, practitioners and government officials from all over the world. Previous GCREC annual conferences were hosted by the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics, Renmin University of China, Chengchi University in Taiwan, and Zhejiang University, respectively.

Mirrlees, Nobel laureate in economic sciences; and Mr. Theodore W.
