Recommendation

A trio of Boston Consulting Group professionals presents an overview of trends in China’s internet industry. The analysis is specific and detailed about some topics such as “smart manufacturing,” while describing others in broad strokes. The trends analysis is sound and culminates in pointers for companies operating in China today.

Take-Aways

  • After building a powerful consumer web, China’s internet giants are using their technological expertise and resources to expand into the “industrial internet.”
  • Companies like Alibaba now offer digital supply chains and other online infrastructure to small and midsize enterprises (SMEs) looking to scale.
  • While the large US internet firms have pitted their own e-commerce sites against brick-and-mortar retailers, China’s internet firms are investing in and partnering with the nation’s retailers.
