  • AI Rivalry between China and the USA – Innovation, Regulation, Governance, and Ethics

    • September 09, 2026
    • 9:00 PM
    • Zoom
    Register

    The AI rivalry between China and the USA is a story of consequential geopolitical, regulatory, and business strategy dimensions. For example, Meta's recently attempted $2B acquisition of Manus, a Chinese-founded AI agent company that relocated to Singapore. The government in Beijing blocked what they viewed as a showcase of Chinese AI capability landing in American hands. Furthermore, while the US is widely regarded the leader in AI model development, Meta looked to Singapore/China for agentic AI innovation.

    Prof. Kevin Werbach is Wharton’s leading expert on the comparative landscape of AI in China and the USA. He leads the Wharton Global Modular Course “Tech and AI in China” on-site in Beijing and Hangzhou, focusing on China’s rapid AI innovation. The course features company visits, expert meetings, and analysis of China's unique AI regulatory and business environment.


    This webinar will be held September 9th at 9:00 PM ET / September 10th at 9:00 AM Beijing Time.

    Kindly hosted by Evan Oster '87.
