Globalization and the Chinese High-Tech Professionals
in Silicon Valley

Professor: Bernard Wong
Tuesday, April 10, 2007
12:00 - 1:30pm
Harris Conference Room, 119 Moses Hall

The talk will focus on how globalization affects the development and formation of the newest Chinese comunity in Silicon Valley.

Glocalization brings the various Chinese from many different regions and cultures of the world, impacting not just their work environments but also their personal, family and social life. The community created differs significantly from all traditional Chinatowns in America. The new global economies, technology, Chinese and American cultures, as will be demonstrated, have shaped these high-tech professionals, their ethnic identity and their adaptive strategies.
