UA China has been invited to attend a special event called Young Leaders & BuSo Workshop: “Entrepreneurship and Start-Ups between Germany and China Trends, Business Opportunities, Social Causes”, host by German Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai and Konrad-Adenauer-Stiftung Shanghai.
The need for continuous innovation – socially and technologically – suggests that it is key to investigate the potential to stimulate start up scenes:
- How do the entrepreneurial scenes in Germany and in China look like?
- How can Chinese and German organizations tap into new sources of innovation by partnering with entrepreneurs?
This special event takes a deeper look into this hot topic and discusses the following questions:
- What are trends in the start-up scenes in China and in Germany? How do eco-systems for start-ups look like? How can Germany and China learn from each other?
- How can corporates benefit from working with entrepreneurs and start-ups? How to create win-win partnerships?
- What happens at the universities in both countries?
- Entrepreneurship and society engagement – why and how are these important topics interrelated?
