2 GREAT EVENTS - SAME DAY! With Professor McFarlan
Monday, March 12, 2018
In 2018, China faces new dramatic challenges. The country, since its emergence under Deng Xiaoping in 1978, has been driven by a low-cost, export-drive production strategy. Remarkably successful for four decades, it is no longer viable. Since 2013, they have been trying to both climb the value-added chain and also compete more broadly on an international basis. This has led to a number of acquisitions inside and outside China by their companies to both boost their technical competence and add new distribution channels inside China. It is a time of great turbulence. This speech will talk about what this means to the U.S.A. Learn more HERE.
See below for the luncheon and evening events planned for Monday, March 12th with Professor Warren McFarlan. Hope you can join us!
