Colfax Avenue: In March, 2010, after four years of investment in the Chinese market, Google closed its site in China citing a cyber attack and challenges presented by Chinese censorship. This event may be emblematic of growing difficulties for U.S. firms in China. An emerging Chinese policy of “indigenous innovation” favors domestic enterprises at the expense of U.S. firms via a web of patent laws, product standards, and licensing requirements that many say are putting non-Chinese firms at a significant disadvantage. Join Active Minds as we examine how China’s single-party communist rule has impacted its path to economic development and how this emerging conflict is viewed by the international business community.
