Furthermore, with his innovative business thinking, he has led Neusoft to become a leading IT solutions & services provider and the largest offshore software outsourcing provider in China, with more than 13,000 employees in a short span of 16 years.  He has not only successfully set up within Neusoft three inter-promoting business units inclusive of IT solutions & services, medical systems, and IT education & training, but created an ecological system that integrates industry, education, and research with talents as its very core.  Innovative incentive has become an important factor for Neusoft's moving towards globalization continually.

For this winning of the award, Dr. Liu stated that it's an honor for Neusoft to win the award from so many excellent candidates.  Neusoft has always been focusing on innovative practices in the aspects of business strategy, HR, technology, and R&D, and the innovation has largely impelled Neusoft's development.  Moreover, he expressed his gratitude for this great time and the dynamic Asian economy, because such a prosperous Asian economy is the success of excellent business leaders from every Asian country.  In the future, Neusoft will move on and make more contribution to further development of Asian economy.
