Chicago Conversations—straight to the heart of the matter. In true Booth style, we actively seek the brightest thinkers, the most accomplished practitioners—innovators of every persuasion—and engage them in the cities where their industries thrive. Private equity in Mumbai. Technology in Seattle. Social enterprise in San Francisco.

Wherever the players are, is where you’ll find us. Looking at industry-specific topics and challenges through the lens of Chicago-style thinking is guaranteed to make for a lively, engaging, insightful conversation. A Chicago Conversation.

Entrepreneurship in Asia

Entrepreneurship is woven into Hong Kong’s fabric. For decades, Hong Kong has been regarded as Asia’s easiest city in which to establish a company. Fast forward to 2014 to a rapid pace of change in mobile technology and an increased accessibility to global venture capital.

Is entrepreneurship alive and well in this burgeoning city? Does space exists for entrepreneurs to cultivate their dreams or is Hong Kong struggling to simply keep up with a transient, growing population and other global economic shifts?

Chicago Booth invites you to join us in Hong Kong for a discussion with Booth alumni and entrepreneurs who will share their expertise and perspective on the current environment. Hear their take on the future of entrepreneurship in media and entertainment.
