Hi seniors, could you help me check the backgrounds of my two interviewers, Jakob Hinrichsen and Yifeng Wang?

Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi, mugi, the basic information of the two interviewers are supposed to come along with the interview invitation details. Didnt you get it?

I do not think we can help you check their background at this moment. If you are convincing enough to show your value, you will have a big chance. Good luck!

Hahaha, Simba...but you also help answer lots of questions in these posts here!

And I assume Inseadsh might change the question to: any idea regarding to Czech and Austria?      Visa for Turkey and Cyprus is a little bit complicated than we expected.

Also, I think bolei's example of successful is a little bit intimidating...  :-)

Good luck.

嘿嘿，我是混迹于其中冒充的......

It seems you guys are really having a great time there

since inseadsh started it, i'm going to start asking questions.

to answer mugi and tupo clearer, i'm based in Shanghai and travel around China on a regular basis due to the nature of my work.

now, my work involves a lot with entrepreneurs and to a lesser degree, VCs.  if you people know of good entrepreneurs, please let me know.  entrepreneurs can be people starting their businesses (and there are a lot of people doing that right now, but not everyone is a good entrepreneur) or have been successful (Focusmedia, Fosun for example).

thanks.

Bolei, just curious, how come NGO will be interested in VCs?  What's the angle when a NGO is dealing with VC?

And what kind of enterpreneur are you looking at?  As an investment professional, I do come across with some enterpreneurs during my daily work. Just curious why you would like to know them.

Are you trying to switch into VC?

Thanks for your reminding. I just imitate previous threads.

btw, what does 'T. Hagen Partners' means? and what is 'AG' in bank?  seems like a title, what is it exactly? I'm in IT technical position quite long time, not that familiar with such jargon. I searched google, but got a list of messed-up information.

Actually my goal is to be a successful entrepreneur in IT C to C (maybe B to C) service. I hope to integrate human's  real life with Internet's virtual life more seamlessly by website and messenger. Currenly i'm in singapore and have been here for 8+ years including study and work. I hope to take MBA to make me well-rounded first and then go back to China to create my venture.  I miss China very much and I wanna be a participant in the renaissance of China.

mugi,  you said what I'd like to say. haha

Me, 8+ years IT (IBM) /Teleco -HK/AU Teleco W/E .I headed to sydney 3 years ago....   . I also wanna back to China to do my own business about WEB2.0/B2B/B2C/C2C whatever web based e-business.

+U !!

You didn't ask the right question to Google.

Following is explanation from wikipedia

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aktiengesellschaft

Aktiengesellschaft (IPA: ['aktsiəngəzεlʃaft]; abbreviated AG) is a German term that refers to a corporation that is limited by shares, i.e., owned by shareholders. It may be traded on a stock market. The term is used in Germany, Austria, and Switzerland. The United States equivalent term is "public company." The equivalent term in the UK is PLC. It is generally considered equivalent to an S.A. when comparing to other civil-law jurisdictions.

Several countries have similar forms of company: Italy (Società per Azioni, S.p.A.), Denmark (Aktieselskab, A/S), Norway (Aksjeselskap, AS), Sweden (Aktiebolag, AB), Slovakia (akciová spoločnosť, a.s.), the Czech Republic (Akciová společnost, a.s.), and Finland (Osakeyhtiö, OY), among others. All have names that more or less literally translate to "Aktiengesellschaft" (i.e. "share company"), although their structures differ (for instance, an Italian S.p.A. is closer to a French S.A. than a German AG).

For 'T. Hagen Partners', it implies that this is a parternship entity.  A lot of professional service firms, e.g. lawyer, accountant, fund managers, will use such structure.

Simba, thanks for answering questions for us. We need more professional people like you.

Just got my carte de sejour today.

tupo, thanks for the continuous interest in INSEAD, esp the consulting area. We dont have enough data to tell you how many Chiense students got into consulting at this moment because:

1) We have online alumni directory, but some of them are not active because the alumni did not update them regularly. If we turn to career report for help, it would be difficult for us to get the info too because they dont pool out Chinese people specifically.

2) INSEAD students tend to change their job after graduating from INSEAD. Some of the students might land a job in industry first but then they switched to MC. I think you've heard about Steve Job's famous quote: Keep looking, dont settle. That does happen to INSEAD people because they keep searching what they really have a passion to do.

What i can tell you now is that we do have many alumni resources to leverage in MC area here.
