About 2026 CEIBS Global EMBA Annual Symposium

The global business landscape is undergoing profound transformation. Against the backdrop of geopolitical shifts, technological acceleration, and supply chain reconfiguration, China’s role is evolving from a “world factory” to an increasingly important innovation engine. At the same time, multinationals are deepening localisation in China, while Chinese companies are accelerating their global expansion. This two-way transformation is creating both opportunities and strategic complexity for business leaders.
The CEIBS Global EMBA Annual Symposium has, since its launch in 2021, become a leading platform for high-level dialogue on China and global business. The 2026 symposium will focus on how companies can navigate China’s evolving role in the global economy, with discussions on multinational strategy, Chinese brand globalisation, and the impact of emerging technologies such as AI.
