Lecture: The Import Export Market in China

Last year China surpassed Japan as the second largest economy in the world, with economists predicting continued growth. Recent years have found the world beginning to look to China for future expansion. But what is the viability of China as the next exports market? What are the obstacles for the future of the Chinese exports market?

Moreover, based on population alone, China has the possibility of becoming one of the largest imports markets in the world. How is the Chinese market different from Western markets, and what are the risks involved in entering the Chinese market?

Alexandre Levy will discuss the potential of the Chinese market and the traits of Chinese consumers. He will also talk about working with Chinese providers, and some of the difficulties of being an entrepreneur in China.
