China in the forty years has moved from being a developing country to a global superpower in manufacturing, technology and online. This rise is now being seen as a threat and is being challenged.

In this online event we will have presentations on the statistics of the growth of China. We will also consider the strategic innovation and industrial drive of China, corporate innovation and the capability that is being build in their resources and people. Besides discussing corporate venturing in China, the session will also feature observations entrepreneurship ecosystems and the implications for high-tech entrepreneurs and innovation. In particular, we will discuss the opportunities and challenges faced by high-tech entrepreneurs when they collaborate with a wide range of partners, including multinational enterprises, universities, and governments. We will conclude with some outlook and key implications for innovation and entrepreneurship in China and beyond.
