Chinese Companies in the UK and US: Prospects and Concerns article featured in Boao Review Magazine

Professor Adrian Bell, Head of the ICMA Centre, Dr Zhiyao Chen and Yeqin Zeng have recently written a long form article titled 'Chinese Companies in the UK and US: Prospects and Concerns'. The article was published in January's edition of Boao Review Magazine, a Journal of Economic Commentaries for the Asia-Pacific Region.

The article notes how the past twenty years has "witnessed the international expansion of Chinese multinational companies, especially in developed countries such as the UK and US" and describes how these Chinese multinational companies are "not only from the traditional manufacturing industry, but also from industries such as technology, energy, entertainment and education."

The article looks at the expansion and investment of multinational Chinese companies, the support received from US and UK governments and the opportunities and concerns going forward.

You can read the article in full here (english) or the original copy in chinese is available at these links part1, part2, part3.

For a brief moment on Tuesday 21st July, the online database of medieval soldiers (http://www.medievalsoldier.org/) hosted at the ICMA Centre, was the news! This database of soldiers serving the English crown between 1369-1454 and including the names of men-at-arms and archers who served at famous battles such as Agincourt in 1415, made the front page of the BBC website, was the most shared site on BBC news online, and interviews were given to BBC Radio Four and 5Live, local radio and even the national radio broadcaster in Canada. Some 250,000 service records are now available to freely search and the database recorded some 125,000 hits on Tuesday alone. The database has gone from strength to strength and this publicity has made the online database extremely popular, and it has now registered 3.5 million hits in just three months - demonstrating the interest of our research to the public at large.
