Christine Lu is the Chairman and founder of The China Business Network and Executive Producer and Host of The China Business Show, a weekly talk radio show focused on doing business in China. After earning a bachelor's degree in International Relations with a focus on East Asian Studies from Boston University, Christine moved to China in 1999 to assume the role of Marketing and Business Development Director for her family's joint-venture clothing business in Shanghai where she successfully designed and launched two lines of women's ready to wear clothing that retailed in Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou. During this time, she also founded, with partner Janet Carmosky, a women's portal and e-commerce dot-com. The concept was incubated and rolled into TV Shopping Network (TVSN), a joint venture funded by Duty Free Shoppers founder Robert Miller's private equity firm Search Group, Prudential Assets Management Asia and IAC's Home Shopping Network. Following the 2000 dot-com crash in China, Christine served for five years as Marketing Director for TV Shopping Network and oversaw the company's business developmement, internet, direct marketing and mail order strategies in China.
In 2004, Christine returned to the USA and
launched an online kitchenware business that maintains eBay Gold
Powerseller status and is a featured merchant on Amazon.com's Seller
Network. In March 2007 Christine created and served as the Executive
Producer and Host of Entrepreneur Magazine's The China Business Show
which has since evolved into The China Business Network, a media and
networking platform for those in the international business community
doing business in China.
If you don't know what you're talking about, at least find someone who does. Instead of looking completely stupid, you'll be considered halfway smart.
