Knowledge of This Month
---------------------------------
China’s new digital frontiers
In our latest newsletter we focus on China’s new digital frontiers. We start with China’s push to redefine how a city works harnessing digital technology with the growth of “Smart Cities”. We then examine the possible end of physical money, as China looks to roll out a new digital currency. As we enter this digital decade we explore the question of who should own our data, and what trust means in a digital age. We also have an interview with Alan Beede, the president of the American Chamber of Commerce in China. And finally we also have our regular BSI report, to take the business temperature of the country.
Welcome to 2020 and the brave new digital world.
