Event Details
Please join GSB Professor Yossi Feinberg, Professor Dongming Chen, Dean of School of Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Peking University and Mr. Frank Hawke, China Director of Stanford Graduate School of Business for an insightful and informative discussion on how innovation and entrepreneurship is changing China’s economy and global corporations at large.
As the appetite for entrepreneurship grows worldwide, large corporations find themselves facing threats and new opportunities that once were reserved for a small set of fast moving hi-tech industries. Under industry disruptive pressures, how do these corporations adapt and maintain a competitive edge?
Similarly, after more than two decades of rapid economic development, China today is facing enormous challenges to maintain a high growth rate. With a strong government push towards innovation and entrepreneurship as the main drivers of economic reform, can China’s unique innovation & entrepreneurial ecosystem be the key to sustainable growth?
Please join GSB Professor Yossi Feinberg, Professor Dongming Chen, Dean of School of Innovation and Entrepreneurship, Peking University and Mr. Frank Hawke, China Director of Stanford Graduate School of Business for an insightful and informative discussion on how innovation and entrepreneurship is changing China’s economy and global corporations at large.
