BEIJING, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 19 January 2024 – The global landscape of innovation has witnessed a remarkable shift with the emergence of Chinese enterprises as significant players in the fields of e-commerce, smartphones, and electric vehicles. This groundbreaking finding comes as a result of extensive research conducted by Prof. John D. Van Fleet, an esteemed adjunct faculty member and Director of Corporate Globalization at Antai College of Economics and Management, Shanghai Jiao Tong University.
Prof. Van Fleet, renowned for his academic focus on innovative development with Chinese characteristics, has been captivated by the remarkable level of innovation emanating from Chinese enterprises. “What has caught my attention and my imagination over all these years is the level of innovation that I’m seeing from Chinese enterprises,” expressed Prof. Van Fleet.
He speaks highly of Chinese people’s efforts to propose new ideas, products, and services. In his eyes, China has become a pioneer of innovation globally.
More than a decade ago, Van Fleet noticed that innovation in the fields of e-commerce, smartphones, and electric vehicles among Chinese companies had begun to take shape, especially in the fields of e-commerce and smartphone collaboration.
China, he said, is the global base of hardware innovation, application innovation, and home to the world’s largest consumer market – due to the purchasing power of nearly a billion people.
Van Fleet said living in China gives him a “front-row seat” to this new era of innovation and economic growth and he feels “pretty lucky” about that.
Today, there are hundreds of millions of consumers in China with an eye on global markets. This indicates tremendous economic strength that will shape not only the future of China but also that of the world.
