In her eyes, business – the core of productivity and economic growth – should embrace a “biological capability” to generate both economic and non-economic values. Doctor Ying Zhang, originally from China, with a background in industrial engineering, economics and management, is an Associate Dean for China Business & Relations and a tenured Professor of Entrepreneurship and Innovation at Rotterdam School of Management, Erasmus University. In 2015, Professor Zhang was recognized as "Best 40 Under 40" Business School Professors worldwide awarded by Poets & Quants. Professor Zhang is also founder and Head of the Erasmus-Huawei Collaboration Program which aims to facilitate knowledge-sharing between technology, innovation, business development and education in order to add value to the local social-economic community.

This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
