Innovation is the golden key to gaining competitive advantage. China is redefining the innovation landscape with its large, adaptable population; affinity for improvisation and reverse engineering; and mature industrial clusters poised to lead the supply chain. The country goes beyond low-cost labor to provide colossal development opportunities for large multinational corporations (MNCs) looking to maximize dollars spent in developing markets.
