The impact of Covid-19 on Chinese society and economy, and on international business norms, has been rapid and severe. Business as usual may not return any time soon. Companies need to re-think their strategies in light of China’s, and the global economy’s, downturns; funding for new start-ups may be impacted; and challenges in supply chains may exacerbate the trends of companies diversifying away from producing in China. Finally, U.S.-China tensions are increasing the political risk on both sides of the Pacific. Some of the changes, however, may bring silver linings and new opportunities.
From this session, participants will learn updates on:
- How China’s economic recovery is progressing
- Challenges, opportunities, and strategies of startups and VC investments in China
- Approaches to Sino-U.S. conflict management
- The status of the U.S.-China phase one trade deal
This program is FREE and open to all, but registration is required.
