How China Is the Newest Market For American Sports

In a new blog post on AmChamChina (American Chamber of Commerce in the People's Republic of China), writer Bryan Bachner outlines the many ways that China is taking its first steps in "global sports management."

American development is slowly starting to have a toehold in the Chinese market, Bachner writes: "professional sports associations from the United States have been working with a variety of constituencies and markets in China and seem to be taking a medium- to long-term approach to development."

With all of this advancement, there's a growing need for a professionalized class of business graduates, and Bachner cites Sports Management's companion degree program with the Guanghua School of Management at Peking University in Beijing, China, has an opportunity to modernize what sports in China will be in the future.
