About the ACM China Council
ACM has launched an effort aimed at increasing the level and visibility of ACM activities across China. The ACM community in China is growing in membership, number of chapters, sponsored conferences and symposia.

The ACM China Council comprises a cross section of the computer science and information technology community committed to increasing the visibility and relevance of ACM in China. The council is focused on a wide range of ACM activities, from creating channels to bring more high-quality ACM activities to China; to expanding ACM chapters; to enhancing access to the ACM Digital Library and publications for ACM members in China; to increasing the participation of ACM members in China across all dimensions of ACM.

The goals of the ACM China Council are to:
