The European Chamber is delighted to invite you to join a breakfast seminar on two transformative trends in China today:the emergence of social media and the rise of entrepreneurial innovation.
Mats Lindgren, CEO of Kairos Future, shares insights into the implications of these trends. He sheds light on an ongoing revolution of creativity and ideas in China based on unique analyses of the complete Chinese patent database, as well as tens of millions of Chinese blogs and micro blogs.
Topics covered include digital coffee houses, emerging innovation hotspots, and China's new wave of entrepreneurs as well as what these mean to business and society.
Target group: The presentation is relevant for most people interested in the rapid change in the Chinese innovation, business and consumer landscape or in positions where they need to understand the trends to be able to cope with and benefit from them.
