Lessons from the Brutal Fight for One Billion Chinese Consumers
12:00 - 2:00 PM, Friday, May 08, 2015 - AmCham China Conference Center
The fight for Chinese Consumers has begun. Listen in as two consumer experts – McKinsey Senior Partner Jonathan Woetzel and Peking University, Guanghua School of Management Professor of Investment Jeffrey Towson – unpack their key insights on this critical market.
After the success of their One Hour China Book, Woetzel and Towson are back to discuss with us:
- Why China is now the world’s most complicated consumer market
- Why competition for Chinese consumers is absolutely brutal
- What are the fundamental factors for winning and losing
