Leon Tang, Business Director of Initiative Media blogs about hosting a company visit for Global MBA students in Shanghai

"The level of the professional visits and courses were up to our expectations. For example, the CEO of CapGemini Asia and the SVP of Michelin, both of whom have many other responsibilities, spent their time meeting us and patiently answering our questions and giving guidance about business in Asia. We did notice that Link to Asia not only have the connections, but also puts hard work 'behind the scenes' to make these high level visits happen. 

The choice of hotel and restaurants was top notch with high quality food and the perfect hotel. The cultural activities were excellent, very relevant and the global balancing of the activities during the week was fine. 

We will work with Link to Asia again next year and strongly recommend them to any organization who intends to set up a study trip in Asia."

"On behalf of all members of the Executive MBA 2015 group and Audencia School of Management, I would like to thank you for the program you have built for us and the warm welcome in China.

We will remember this trip to Shanghai and Beijing as a highlight of the EMBA program."

"My MBA program conducts an international study trip for all its student each year. This year's destination was Shanghai and I was super excited! This was going to be a weeklong trip to the business capital of China.

Link to Asia organized and managed all aspects of our trip, from flights to accommodation to a number of company visits. The company visits are a crucial part of the MBA experience--they give us an insight into how organizations work, allowing us to compare it with what we learned in the classroom. Additionally, it's also an excellent opportunity to interact with recruitment teams and learn about new openings.

In Shanghai we got the chance to visit a wide variety of companies, from consulting companies to ad agencies to manufacturing giants. The experience was great in that we actually met several CEOs. They spoke first-hand about the challenges of doing business in China, and also the rewards. I particularly remember our visit to the European Chamber of Commerce.

Link to Asia also chose a very comfortable and well-located hotel that served our needs perfectly. Through an excellent Chinese welcome dinner (and many other wonderful meals) we also got a small cultural peep into China.

I certainly got an excellent first taste of Shanghai and would like to thank Link to Asia for their planning and execution. Great job!"
