Why this workshop

Most China briefings give you headlines. This one gives you a working model.

European leadership teams keep hearing the same surface-level stories about WeChat, TikTok or BYD. What's missing is the operating logic underneath: how platforms, data, payment, logistics and AI compound into something different. In a single focused morning, this workshop builds that mental model — with real cases.

Agenda

One morning. Three parts. One coherent picture.

The workshop runs as a single live online session, 9:00 – 13:30 CET, structured around three connected parts.

  1. Part 1

    Why is China relevant?

    Context on Shenzhen, politics, society, China after COVID — and why China matters for Western companies today.

  2. Part 2

    Why does the internet work differently in China?

    Mobile-only, Super Apps, central players, social media, influencers / KOLs — and the different logic of Chinese platforms.

  3. Part 3

    How do Chinese digital companies think?

    From AI to New Retail: digital innovations, strategies, business models — and how Chinese ideas can be translated into a Western context.

so your leadership team can have the same conversation — finally on the same page.
