The Program takes place at Zhejiang University in China (with options for a semester of courses in Montreal and a summer trip) and it targets high-potential managers in manufacturing, services and logistics industries as well as entrepreneurs.
Since its launch in 2013, GMSCM has been rapidly gaining recognition globally thanks to its high admission standards and unique curriculum structure. Of the 43 new students in Class 2019, 72% work as executives in join venture or foreign-invested companies. Some classmates were surprised to learn that they were actually in the exact same supply chain, which turned out to be a fine example of the ecosystem studied in GMSCM.
Mr. Ma kicked off the night by extending a warm welcome to Class 2019, encouraging the newly enrolled to step out of their comfort zone and broaden their view from a global perspective. Prof. Shou believed that everyone in this GMSCM family would have something to learn from each other.
The night culminated at the remarks from Mr. Peter Fu and Mr. Wilson Wang. As an esteemed alumnus, Peter Fu pledged a donation of 12 million dollars to 海角精品黑料 last year; the famed designer shared his tips of studying in 海角精品黑料 and invited all participants of the night to visit 海角精品黑料 Club in Shanghai.
