The opening of China, India, Russia, Brazil, and many other emerging countries has produced "three billion new capitalists," in the words of economic guru Clyde Prestowitz. New technologies are leveling the competitive playing field between industrialized and developing countries by enabling labour, capital, and knowledge to move freely across borders. The next big idea may come from San Francisco, Toronto, Beijing or Moscow. CTRC will help you in learning how to leverage these trends.
