We had an amazing experience in China. There was a wonderful mix of cultural visits as well as high-quality business visits. Everything was so well organized by Kate, Ling Mei, and others, and everyone was so welcoming. It was terrific meeting and spending time with the ZIBS students, as well as all the other generous and friendly people we met. This trip was a fabulous learning opportunity, and I feel I have a better understanding of Chinese culture and the business environment from our short visit. I have wonderful memories and photos and will recommend this trip to other students, as well as China as a tourist destination.

I'll cherish the memories and recommend this trip to other students. I give ZIBS and Zhejiang University a Michelin star for their exceptional hospitality, with Kate's exemplary service and Ling Mei ensuring the students had a once-in-a-lifetime experience. Meeting exceptional individuals like Professor BEN was amazing!

Our study tour to China, professionally organized by Mrs. CONG from RMIT Melbourne and the ZIBS iMBA faculty in Haining, provided us with a rich cross-cultural experience and an unforgettable culinary journey. Visiting companies in Haining and Hangzhou, notably Alibaba, highlighted the immense potential for global trade cooperation. I am deeply grateful to Mrs. CONG and the ZIBS iMBA faculty for their professionalism and warm hospitality, which not only ignited our passion for international collaboration but also deepened our understanding of Chinese culture and business practices. I wholeheartedly recommend the China Study Tour program to future MBA students. Thank you all for an enriching experience. Xièxiè!

The study tour to China was a phenomenal experience, curated by the combined efforts of Ling Mei, Kate, and ZIBS faculty and staff. Incorporating a multitude of both cultural and professional business experiences, this tour really stands as a benchmark for other study tours. The cultural experiences, consisting of both historical landmarks and an abundance of exceptional culinary allowed us to enhance our understanding of China's rich history, traditions, and way of life, with the famous West Lake show standing out as a highlight of this tour. On the other hand, the business part of this visit to China presented us with the opportunity to visit giant global corporations such as Geely and Alibaba, helping us to expand our professional network, build strong relationships, and discover how businesses in China operate. Finally, the exposure to the ZIBS campus, its lecturers, and students further allowed us to have a taste of Chinese education from one of China's best universities while simultaneously allowing us to build relationships. This study tour was an unforgettable experience that I will fondly look back on for years to come.

China was breathtaking. I'm blown away by how much people embrace their rich heritage and how they treat guests with such warmth. A big thanks to Ling Mei, Kate, and the rest of the ZIBS team for organising this trip. They not only provided us with an academic insight into China but also its vibrant cultural and business landscape. Kate's exceptional kindness in addressing our daily challenges transcended the role of a coordinator to that of a friend. I’m glad to have met some amazing people from different parts of the world and to have built a personal connection with each one of them. I can't wait to relive all the China memories through the photos and videos I've taken!

China captivated me with its rich cultural tapestry and dynamic business landscape. Thanks to the meticulous organization of Ling Mei, Kate, and the dedicated team at ZIBS, my journey was a seamless blend of enlightening cultural explorations and insightful business engagements. From the vibrant hustle of Alibaba to the tranquil beauty of tea plantations and mustard fields in Wuzhen, each experience left an indelible mark on my understanding of China. The warmth and hospitality extended by everyone I encountered, including the ZIBS students and faculty, enriched my learning journey beyond measure. I'm also bringing back unforgettable moments spent indulging in tea tasting, immersing myself in the flavors and traditions deeply rooted in Chinese heritage. This trip not only broadened my perspective on Chinese culture and business practices but also forged lasting connections with my cohort from around the globe. I am grateful for this transformative experience and eagerly look forward to sharing the magic of China with others.

通过此次活动，RMIT师生们不仅增进了对中国商业环境的了解，也结识了志同道合的新朋友。大家表示，本次访学不仅是一次难得的学习机会，更是一次难忘的人生体验，期待未来能够有更多的机会与浙江大学和ZIBS进行深入的交流与合作，共同推动全球商业教育的发展。今年暑期，ZIBS将组织学生前往RMIT进行短期访学，敬请期待！
