Testimonials

Kylie Rowe, USA, ’15 Graduate “Hangzhou is known for being one of the fastest growing startup hubs in China and what brings the most credibility to this location is the headquarters of the billion-dollar business, Alibaba and its famously known CEO, Jack Ma - a native of Hangzhou. The Summer School program provided many learning opportunities, but of the most important were the real world tours of Entrepreneurship in China.”

Ash Tyndall, Australia, ’15 Graduate “The connections alone I have created here will be very helpful for future opportunities in China. The course itself has helped paint a realistic picture of the state of China and the potential for entrepreneurial opportunities therein.”

Johanna Öjeling, Sweden, ’14 Graduate “I especially enjoyed the Survival Chinese lessons as well as the opportunity to approach Chinese culture by trying calligraphy and painting. What I appreciated the most, however, was the enthusiasm and guidance from the friendly staff at the School of Management and the accommodating Chinese student volunteers.”

Aadam Nabi, UK, ’14 Graduate “Another highlight of the university was studying and living with people from a wide range of backgrounds. There were students from different countries in Europe, the Middle East, Asia as well as the USA and Australia.
