You certainly follow all the digital trends in our hemisphere. But at the same time, you probably do not really know much about what is going on in Digital China. Maybe because you do not do business in China, maybe for political reasons. Or you just think there is not much going on in general.
We want to inspire you to change that - despite all the skepticism - because China's digital trends & innovations are much more relevant than you think.

All this in an exciting new digital workshop format with very small groups, lots of interaction and interesting participants sharing their very personal experiences. It is not a webinar. We promise...
This seminar is offered exclusively as an online workshop. The goal here is not a webinar with one-way communication, but truly collaborative and interactive work and discussion.
