Message from Dean

The concept of new productive forces encompasses several dimensions. Including technological innovation, the innovative combination and optimization of various production factors, and the transformation and upgrading of industries. For Zhejiang merchants, while advancing to the stage of new productive forces, more breakthrough innovations are needed. Strategic synergistic relationships with academia and other research institutions are of great importance. I believe the convergence of these two aspects is crucial. People with a background in technology should possess knowledge of management and finance, while management talents should also understand technology and its development trends.

ZIBS is indeed positioned as a science & technology-focused premier global business school from China. We are committed to assisting and empowering scientists, engineers, and innovators to better manage their businesses, enhance commercialization, and promote industrialization.
