Wieck Wildeboer will be the guest speaker at MIUC during the seminar on the Chinese Economic Development and the New Silk Road. His talk is bound to ignite the interest of our students of both International Business and International Relations, as his words will be focusing on important aspects of the Chinese Economic System.
It is a well-known fact that the Chinese economy has been growing at a very high pace over the last decades. Its main challenge today is to successfully turn the economy from an export driven one to an economy driven by internal consumption. China’s enormous economy also challenges the country to take up a new role on the international scene and the “New Silk Road” is a key initiative in this perspective.
