To celebrate our 20th anniversary, the European Chamber hosted a 'VIP Webinar Series' in May 2020 with the world’s leading industry experts, scholars, political consultants and strategists, on a variety of topics including economy, politics, technology, sustainability, EU-China relation and EU-China-US triangle. The webinar series were well received and attracted over a thousand attendees.

This webinar ‘China Politics in a Time of COVID-19’ was held on 6th May. Although COVID-19 now seems to be largely under control in China, the speed of the government’s response to the situation has come under close scrutiny from the international community, with many believing that prompter action at an earlier stage would have averted the pandemic. Regardless of whether or not this is publicly acknowledged, COVID-19 will surely prompt China to rethink its politics and how it chooses to engage with the rest of the world going forward.

European Chamber President Joerg Wuttke led a webinar discussion with two VIP guests on the implications of COVID-19 on China’s regime, its approach to diplomacy and what it will do next.

VIP guests joining the discussion include:
- Mikko Huotari, Executive Director of MERICS;
- Dr Jian Zhang, Associate Professor of Political Science and Assistant Dean for External Cooperation at the School of Government, Peking University.
