Mastering China at the Board Level
Please join us for our upcoming seminar on Mastering China at the Board Level on October 07, 2020.
About the Seminar
As most internationally oriented firms have an increasing number of interactions with China and Chinese firms, a solid understanding of the opportunities and challenges of doing business with and in China is essential. The effective governance of such interactions has turned out to be a major value driver. This requires investors, board members and top management to be fully aware of the corporate governance regulations, and have a clear view of how to drive board effectiveness in such a context.
Now in its third year, this seminar is aimed at executives of companies which do business with or have an interest in China and who wish to learn about work and boardroom culture issues and the corporate governance system of China.
