I have been selected to participate in the China Lab program! As part of the program, I will travel to China in March, working in an entrepreneurial Chinese company and teaming up with students from Chinese Business schools.
“China Lab” is a new program that partners MIT Sloan MBAs, Chinese business students, and small entrepreneurs in China to strengthen the firms while providing us with actual experience not available in a classroom."China Lab” is sending the first group of 24 Sloan MBAs to China in March. In China, we will connect with business students at the four Chinese universities affiliated with the MIT-China program. Working in combined teams, we will divide into separate groups, each spending a week working with a small, young Chinese company. The host companies are local, entrepreneurial firms and NGOs. We will study a critical issue: market entry, commercialization, internationalization, financing, etc.
I will go to the area of Kunming, the city of Eternal spring (Yunnan province in SouthWest China), and later I will spend some time in Beijing with the rest of the group. It is going to be great to be there some months before the Olympics! The nice thing is that the program pays for the trip and lodging.
