#115: The Split, finding the opportunities in China's economy in the New World Order

If you work across time zones, borders, and cultures, this is the show for you. Today, we explore the divide between China and the United States and its global repercussions.   The world is increasingly dividing between the U.S. and China. No government or company is immune to the escalating tensions between these two superpowers.   - China’s old growth playbook relying on real estate for growth is damaged. What are the new productive forces to drive growth?   - Some analysts argue that Vietnam or India is the next China. This is also part of the diversification of supply chains, the China Plus One strategy. Can Vietnam or India really be the next China?   ⁠Join Leonardo on Patreon for:⁠⁠ Podcast Archive: 102 episodes (40+ hours). Podcast Bonus Episodes: New exclusive content.
