Christina Boutrup

About Christina Boutrup:

Christina Boutrup is a leading China analyst, thought leader and keynote speaker who authored several books about China, based on her own field research as an experienced business journalist and TV correspondent. In her latest book she writes about the tech revolution in China and how it shapes our future in Europe.

She lived in China for several years, most recently she experienced the draconian lockdown in Shanghai with her family firsthand, and she has a valuable up-to-date perspective on the most important business and tech trends in China and beyond.

About this keynote:

The China Factor – How Cina shapes the future of trade

The center of economic gravity of the world has already shifted to Asia, and Chinese companies are frontrunners in many of the new technologies that are shaping our future. But the image of China as the factory of the world and a promising new market has deteriorated in recent years because of the pandemic and the war in Ukraine, forcing companies to reconsider and diversify investments.

While the big power struggle and trade war between the US and China is intensifying, China is establishing an alternative world order and trade system that is gaining traction in the global south.

How should European companies navigate this uncertainty and what are the most important trends to be aware of? In this keynote you will get an up to date perspective on the China factor in global trade and what to expect from the world’s new superpower.
