Featuring a stellar line-up of officials, academics and business leaders, CKGSB’s 5th China Economic Symposium: What’s Next for the Golden Era of UK-China Relations, co-hosted by the Cheung Kong Graduate School of Business (CKGSB) and the Institute of Directors (IoD), will take place in London on July 19th, 2018.

Last year, China’s economy grew at a better-than-expected 6.9%, bolstering one-third of global growth, thanks largely to housing, infrastructure investment, exports and retail sales. That growth in the world’s second-biggest economy has continued into 2018 and looks to have stabilized after several years of slowing. But how can the UK tap into this remarkable growth story and what can we expect for the so-called “golden era” of UK-China relations? China’s Belt and Road Initiative has presented vast investment opportunities and policy benefits to European business leaders, but with countries all around the world wanting a piece of China’s pie, how can global business leaders capitalize and, more specifically, what new trends in bilateral economic ties will emerge as a result?

Four well-known professors from CKGSB, including Founding Dean Xiang Bing and Xu Chenggang, winner of the inaugural China Economics Prize, will be joined by Chinese Ambassador to the UK H. E. Liu Xiaoming, Jaguar Land Rover CEO Ralf Speth, Bank of China (UK) CEO Sun Yu, United Nations Conference on Trade and Development Enterprise Head Tatiana Krylova, Financial Times reporter Jonathan Moules and many more to discuss these, and other, issues. A select invite-only audience will be in attendance at the IoD headquarters in London, while the event will be live-streamed online in both English and Chinese for those unable to attend. Previous editions of the CKGSB China Economic Symposium have attracted more than half a million viewers online via major media platforms.

This event is organized in cooperation with the EU-China Business Association (EUCBA).
