China and Europe, two of the most important parties in ensuring international political and economic stability, have developed closer ties in recent years, especially after the rise of economic nationalism and protectionist tendencies in the United States. China’s development provides both, enormous opportunities and immense challenges to Europe. To further understand the complexity from not only a political perspective but also borrowing insights from business, social and economic perspectives, the China Global Center organized the China Goes Europe workshop, hosted by Professor Tobias ten Brink and Professor Christoph Lattemann.

On 20 September 2017, over 80 guests joined the discussion on China Goes Europe. Topics such as the Road Belt Initiative, Chinese investment in Europe, value creation, mergers and acquisitions have been broached by various guest speakers and participants. We are honored to have Mr. Hans Helldorff, the President of the Federal Association of German Silk Road Initiative, Professor Yipeng Liu from Newcastle University, Professor Thomas Scott from University of Southern Denmark, Professor Diego Quer from University Alicante, Professor Ilan Alon from University of Agder, Professor Marin Marinov from Alborg University, Professor Tilo Halaszovich from Jacobs University Bremen, and Professor Yuping Du from Guangdong University of Foreign Studies to share their research and insights. Delegations of Chinese businesspersons joined the discussion and enriched the academic discussion by bridging the gap to latest business challenges.

 

Topic: Sino-German Public Private Partnership (PPP) in the Environmental Industry
Date:  August. 30, 2017
Organizer: China Global Center & the Institute of Applied Ecology (IAE) Chinese Academy of Science (CAS)
Keynote Speakers: Prof. Xi Fengming; Prof. Lattemann; Prof. Zhao Fuqiang; Prof. ten Brink
Where: IAE, Shenyang, China

Energy and environment are two of the most debated topics in China as well as the major concerns of the Chinese government. This is especially so because China faces immense environmental challenges which call for political, economic and social actions. The Chinese government has also become increasingly concerned about sustainable development, which accounts for the rise of environmental industry across China.

On 30 August 2017, the Sino-German PPP workshop took place in Shenyang, Liaoning Province, China. This workshop, organized by the Institute of Applied Ecology (IAE) Chinese Academy of Science (CAS), and China Global Centre of Jacobs University Bremen, discussed modes of the western concept of Public-Private Partnerships (PPP) to cope with the environmental problems in China. Distinguished scholars from various disciplines such as environmental science, business, economics and political science participated in the discussions. Professor Tobias ten Brink and Professor Christoph Lattemann were among the organizers of the workshop.

 

Topic: China Goes Global (CGG) Conferences 2017

Keynote Speakers: HELGE AASEN; DR. DAVID ZWEIG; JINGZHOU TAO…
Where: Kristiansand, Norway

The rise of China as a global economic power and the increasing awareness of its impact on international trading regimes have engendered a new dialogue about intercontinental business matters. The China Goes Global Conference, therefore, aims to not only add to the growth of knowledge about China’s modern political and economic development, global crises and changes in business and social interaction but also ensure a realistic perspective on the changes we face in the world market.

On 15-17 June 2017, the 11th Annual China Goes Global conference took place in Kristiansand, Norway. As one of the largest and most active conferences on Chinese Globalization, China Goes Global™ held its first annual conference in 2006 at Rollins College in Winter Park, Florida. Between 2007 and 2017, conferences were held at top institutions like Harvard University, University of Macerata, Shanghai Jiaotong University and Jacobs University Bremen. Distinguished scholars, business leaders, and government officials were invited to share their insights on China-related topics, which allowed for a transdisciplinary discussion including fields of knowledge from international business, economics, political science, history, sociology and other relevant disciplines. This year’s conference had a particular focus on how Chinese movement of people, ideas, money, and products affect other nations, industries and companies. Jacobs University is honored to have Professor Christoph Lattemann as the vice president of the Chinese Globalization Association, the organizing body of the conference.

Roundtable Workshop: ‘Towards a better understanding of Chinese OFDI’
Date: August 23,  2015
Where: Shanghai Jiaotong University/Kedge Business School
Collaboration: Jacobs University, Jiaotong University Shanghai/Kedge Business School
Much research has been carried out on Chinese outward investment in broad terms, classifying Chinese outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) either as a threat or a blessing to the host country. There exist persistent misunderstandings about the motives behind Chinese OFDI in both international media and in academia.
This workshop will shed light on Chinese OFDI, factors, motives and consequences.
