This week, Monday 23 May up to 27 May 2016, 20 MBA students from Hong Kong Baptist University will be attending a short-study programme on international business and intercultural communication at Kent Business School.<\/p>\n
\u2018A warm relationship has developed between Kent Business School and Hong Kong Baptist over many years\u2019, said Martin Meyer, the Director of Kent Business School. \u2018Welcoming our partners and MBA students from Hong Kong offers a great opportunity to exchange business practices in a cultural context, and I look forward to this being the start of other future programmes of this kind.\u2019<\/p>\n
The short-study programme, which taps into growing trade links between China and the UK, will be complemented with field trips to several UK companies in Kent, a visit to the London Stock Exchange Market and a talk by Conservative MEP Richard Ashworth on UK\u2019s international trade relations, specifically with Southeast Asia.<\/p>\n
KBS\u2019s international executive education programme is part of the School\u2019s internationalisation strategy. Head of School, Martin Meyer is keen to further develop the executive education offer to Asian academic institutions. A very successful trip to Malaysia, Hong Kong and Singapore three weeks ago strengthened existing, and explored new contacts in this field.<\/p>\n
