Hello everyone, my name is Hu Jianzhe, and I am a CEIBS MBA Class of 2025 alumnus. I have an undergraduate background in education and have worked in both the education sector and the industrial IoT industry.
In the first session of our new GEMBA Impact series, three CEIBS Global EMBA alumni — Theresa Cai, Simon Zhang, and Kay Geithner — share how the programme helped them transform their careers, rediscover purpose, and lead with impact across borders and industries.
Daisuke Suga (GEMBA 2021) is helping global shipping giant NYK Group chart new territory—space. With 16 years of experience across operations, finance, and logistics, he is now leading a joint R&D project with Japan’s space agency JAXA to develop next-generation reusable rockets. These rockets can be caught and recovered at sea, reducing costs and enabling scalable, sustainable space exploration. Drawing on his CEIBS GEMBA education and NYK’s maritime expertise, Daisuke envisions sea-based rocket recovery as a game-changer. His story highlights how cross-industry innovation and bold thinking can unlock future growth—even beyond Earth’s orbit.
This #InternationalWomensDay, we celebrate five incredible CEIBS GEMBA alumnae redefining leadership! From breaking barriers to balancing career & life, their journeys inspire resilience, innovation & impact.
Serial entrepreneur, leader of an international packaging brand, and franchisee of a social enterprise, Cynthia Huang is a highly versatile leader capable of founding, building, maintaining and expanding all manner of businesses. Currently a student of the CEIBS Global EMBA 2023 class, Cynthia is committed to embedding ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) into every part of her professional life. For her, “doing well” and “doing good” in business can and should go hand in hand.
For Marco Kiefer, Global EMBA 2022 alumni and current Senior Manager Carline Controlling at Beijing Mercedes-Benz Sales Service, understanding the nature of this change (and its subsequent impact) needs constant consideration. Discussing his work, his deepening roots in China and his broader reflections on the auto industry.
Conflicts brought about by clashing civilizations are inevitable. Those striving to defend their traditions or to claim leadership over the world always find themselves hurling curses and brandishing blades at each other — often while standing on the fragile edge of a cliff. Yet, whenever they look up at the sun — at the infinite brilliance of our clear blue sky, with fleeting clouds that never truly vanish — they are reminded of the many things that have come before and momentarily learn to quiet down. There will always be people who step up to tell the others that this is a new world where ice and snow are melting into streams, where the seedlings of life are sprouting, and endless possibilities await humanity to cooperate and explore.
