One of the main concerns for foreigners in China is air quality. Recently things are getting better and the reason comes from a large variety of actions. We found some weird measures being taken, such as covering of green plastic the empty land around the city, allowing all sharing bikes scamp along the pedestrian walkways without a certain order…but it is plausible to see that the result is positive. Hopefully it will continue and we can see a much greener Tianjin and people get more concerned about the environment where we are likely to spend the rest of our lives.
Business Tianjin spoke to Jessica Lam about the trials and rewards of being a business founder and the necessity of diversity. She is the co-founder of Kaiterra, one of Beijing’s most exciting foreign-founded startups, which manufactures and sells a variety of air purification products for being used at home. She is a Canadian who has been named in the Forbes 30 Under-30 list of the brightest young entrepreneurs while her company’s star product, the Laser Egg, has been selling like the proverbial hotcakes.
In our dialogue column, Shaun Rein spoke to Business Tianjin about his starting out in business, his experiences in the city and what it takes to fend off Deloitte and McKinsey. He is best known as the author of ‘The End of Cheap China’ and ‘The End of Copycat China’, two prescient books examining the most recent trends in Chinese economy. He’s also the founder and MD of China Market Research Group, a high-end consultancy firm. With these distinguished feathers in his cap, he’s a man plugged into the risks and rewards of the Chinese business sector.
The addiction to online shopping and numerous mobile apps made it possible for consumers to shift from brick-and-mortar shopping to convenient door-to-door delivery provided by online stores. We summarize in our Feature Story the Local Way of e-Commerce one more time because it is changing our lives dramatically.
We publish a great variety of interesting articles such as China-Africa relationship, modern technology at your home from an architect’s perspective, co-branding or not, new HR technology trends, Telehealth and our always amazing Last Words final piece.
