Technological Competition and the Development of Green Industry in China

  • ADGM Academy ADGM Abu Dhabi, Abu Dhabi United Arab Emirates (map)

Professor Ju Jiandong is Chair Professor, PBC School of Finance at Tsinghua University, and one of China’s leading experts on green finance and industrial development.

Hear directly from Professor Ju Jiandong on China’s evolving role in global green innovation.

This seminar explores how China is navigating the transition toward sustainability and technological leadership. Key concepts include:

  • Incremental Innovation: Gradual improvements through R&D competition, with the risk of falling into a "chaser’s trap."

  • Disruptive Innovation: Technology that replaces the old, creating a "leader’s dilemma" and offering opportunities for leapfrogging.

Gain insights into how these innovation dynamics play out in China’s race for green and digital transformation. Come early for coffee and networking and stay after the session for informal discussions over refreshments.
