Western concerns about the rise of China and India are raising alarms today, much as they were fifty years ago. China and India currently operate in the global economy as mirror images of each other—one favors multinationals over indigenous private companies, the other favors its locals and shuns foreigners. In "Billions of Entrepreneurs: How China and India are Reshaping Their Futures and Yours," Professor Tarun Khanna, Harvard Business School, explores the likely evolution of the Chinese and Indian models and the implications for the world in four settings: China and the world, India and the world, Chinese and Indian mutual relations, and the view from the developed world. And just as hysteria and protectionism proved unwarranted half a century ago, Khanna argues that the rise of China and India is again an opportunity for profit and hope. Join us on Friday, March 27, from noon to 1:30 p.m. in the 3M Auditorium at the Carlson School of Management for this insightful discussion on international entrepreneurship, development, and competition in a globalizing world economy.

This event is sponsored by the University of Minnesota's Center for Integrative Leadership and the Carlson School of Management's Holmes Center for Entrepreneurship and Strategic Management Research Center. Professor Khanna's book will be available for purchase. Click here for more information.
