Thank you very much for your interest.
Due to overwhelming responses received, we have already reached the full capacity of the venue and we have to close the RSVP of the event.
Please do stay in touch and hope to see you at our future events.
As geopolitical tensions continue to surge, the world economy is undergoing a period of significant transformations, with shifting geoeconomic trends, and changing business environments across industries. It becomes increasingly important for businesses to understand the paradigm shifts in worldwide trade as well as how to tackle the challenges, grasp opportunities, mitigate risks and build resilience.
The HKUST Business School BizInsight Forum in Shenzhen is set to address these issues, leveraging the profound expertise and experience of renowned industry experts, prominent alumni, and distinguished professors. Whether it is in the sphere of supply chain, fintech, banking or AI, those businesses who can recognize the major trends and integrate the geoeconomic factors into their operations will find new niche markets and gain a competitive edge in this rewired global landscape.
The forum will be followed by an alumni dinner, providing an extended platform for participants to foster connections with fellow alumni and faculty members, exchange professional experiences, and keep abreast of the latest developments of your alma mater.
