[the 2010 World Expo in Shanghai, China.]

[plus 50 international organizations and corporations.]

[Over the 6 months that the Expo will be open, there will be an estimated]

[70 million visitors here.]

[You know--GE's got a long history of participation in Expos, starting in 1876,]

[when Thomas Edison brought his telegraph to the World Expo in Philadelphia,]

[and then he, in following World Expos, he brought other inventions, ]

[such as a power generator, lightbulbs, the gramophone, ]

[and 134 years later, the spirit of GE innovation now extends to Shanghai, China.]

[You know--I'm standing right now in front of the USA pavilion here at the Expo.]

[GE is one of five founding partners of the USA pavilion.]

[Inside we showcase on an interactive digital screen]

[GE's renewable energy Smart Grid, green locomotives, eco-friendly aircraft engines.]

[It's really great. It's really fun to play with.]

[We're also highlighting our Healthymagination technology in a visible you booth.]

[This is a digital glance inside your body's nerves, muscles, and cardiovascular system,]

[and really illustrates GE's Healthymagination solutions.]

[So I'm really excited as we bring GE to this significant global platform.]

[The Expo's slogan is "Better city, better life," and that fits GE's strategy perfectly.]
