Disruption in the GBA - Tapping into the Ecosystem

With GBA the home to 45 unicorns, including DJI, WeBank, UBTech, SenseTime and Lalamove, the region is one of the most vibrant and fertile grounds for start-ups to test their prototypes and scale up their business. A dedicated chapter in the "Blueprint of the Development of GBA" lays out the measures the GBA governments are encouraged to take to unleash the potential of start-ups and innovation projects, including funding and supporting co-working spaces, incubators and accelerators, community centers as well as events that promote innovation and entrepreneurship.

During this lunch seminar, we will explore the unicorn-making machinery and provide examples on how Startups as well as established companies can tap into the GBA Ecosystem.
