More than 1,500 global business and government leaders are currently in Tianjin for this year’s Summer Davos session of the World Economic Forum, where Chinese Premier Li Qiang has affirmed China’s support of foreign companies, and criticized Western efforts to limit trade and business ties with the country. What are the potential risks of the de-risking strategy pursued by some countries? What challenges are entrepreneurs facing in the world today? And what are China’s plans to boost economic growth for 2023? Guests in this edition of Dialogue are Prof. Liu Baocheng from the University of International Business and Economics; Etsehiwot Kebret, development finance advisor at Development Reimagined; and Dr. William Lee, chief

economist of the Milken Institute.
