Mike Bastin’s China Trip: Chasing The Chinese Dream… The Emerging Chinese Fashion Industry
Mike Bastin is a graduate of Warwick University's full-time MBA programme where he specialised in Strategic Brand Management and Fashion Marketing. He is WSA Senior Teaching Fellow and the MA Pathway Co-ordinator for Fashion Marketing and Branding, and will soon set out on an exciting expedition covering most regions and many cities of mainland China.
Of course student recruitment is a major objective but it is only one objective. This trip aims to develop and cement ties with leading Chinese Universities and fashion colleges. His lectures will centre on the emergence of the Chinese Fashion Industry and Chinese Fashion Brands and also highlight the growing importance of the creative industries in China.
