  9. Understanding ”What is China”? • Size equal to Europe • Cultural differences • Rich & Poor • Brutal competition • Rapid and significant changes

  10. Financial Crisis in China….?

  11. China GDP X 2 USA X 3 In 2050, large parts of China will still be a developing country… 2010 2025 2050 Time

  12. Where China is Headed Over 100 auto companies, over1000 steel companies, over 5000 cement producers Consolidation -> better efficiencies, bargaining power and managerial capabilities From “east” to “west” From the “cities” to the “countryside” From “growth at all costs” to “sustainable, balanced growth” Abundant pool of low cost scientists and engineers Government plan to incresae R&D-to-GDP ratio from 1,3% in 2005 to 2,5% in 2020. China’s unique needs as drivers of innovation 25% annual growth in exports (of last 10 years) is unsustainable Need for stronger social safety nets 1. World’s largest economy by 2025 2. From Exports to Domestic Consumption Global Fortune 500 3. From Imitation to Innovation 4. More harmonious Society 5. From fragmentation to consolidation 6. From Domestic Players to Global Champions Source: Insead

  13. China as an Innovation Nation?

  14. China’s Innovation System

  15. Chinas present academic level on a global scale Source: Times higher education ranking 2007

  16. 5 reasons to do more academic collaboration with China • Volume – number of students and academic institutions • Quality – number of patens, research article, academic rewards, seminars etc. • Investments (funding) in research, delevopment and infrastructure • Talent • Dynamics

  17. Imitation + Innovation = Imivation ?? MNC Chinese Company “Shan Zhai” Source: Innovation Center Denmark, Shanghai

  18. Some of the ShanZhai products

  19. MidtNET Value Proposition Does China have a need? Can we quantify and qualify it and identify the target group and decision makers? MidtNET Value Proposition (Innovation) Does the Nordic Company have the corresponding competences and are they willing to develop a winning value proposition and product? Does the Nordic company need help to execute their China strategy – and does Valcon have the competence?
