- ONE ON ONE: A New Path for Economic Development
Guangshao Tu•Derek ZhangAfter over 30 years of rapid development, China is now the world’s second-largest economy—and home to a number of Fortune Global 500 companies.

- ONE ON ONE: The Power of Entrepreneurial Spirit and Culture
“You slept on the floor yesterday, but you could be a big boss today.” This popular saying is often used to describe the entrepreneurial spirit of Zhejiang Province. These entrepreneurs have strived for the best amid the ups and downs of business. As a place devoted to developing its private sector, Zhejiang Province closely connects its economy and culture with entrepreneurial spirit.

- ONE ON ONE: The Global Role of Private Enterprises
Wenyin WangAgainst the backdrop of the Belt and Road Initiative, state-owned enterprises in resources and infrastructure have often joined hands when investing in overseas development.

How can growing private enterprises cope with a complicated global market? What can Chinese private enterprises learn from the overseas experience?

- PANEL DISCUSSION: A More Resilient Global Supply Chain
Craig Burchell•Bo Feng•Clay Chandler•Jens EskelundThe stranding of the Ever Given in the Suez Canal showed how a minor issue can lead to major problems in global supply chains. And yet supply chains are faced with even greater challenges, from the COVID-19 pandemic to mounting geopolitical tensions. In this more complicated era, how can companies build a future-oriented supply chain management system? Is “Just-in-Time” still appropriate? And how can we create a supply chain that can withstand a “black swan” event?

The COVID-19 pandemic has brought mRNA technology into the public eye. It has become one of the newest buzzword of the capital markets, due to its potential for vaccines and anti-tumor therapies. What are the odds that society can beat COVID-19 using our existing biotechnology? What are the technical and even ethical hurdles that must be overcome? And, given our history of coexisting with and fighting disease over thousands of years, how should humanity examine its relationship with nature?
