Earlier this year Harbir Singh Wharton’s vice-dean for Global Initiatives launched a series of trips to foreign countries as a way for faculty to gain a deeper understanding of international economies and then use this knowledge in their teaching and research. Six professors recently visited the Chinese cities of Beijing Shanghai and Shenzhen and met with executives from Lenovo Haier and Huawei among other companies. Knowledge at Wharton asked three of the participants – Singh management professor Saikat Chaudhuri and health care management professor Rob Burns – to share insights from their trip.
