AI is no longer a side experiment—it is fundamentally reshaping how businesses generate leads, qualify opportunities, prioritise pipelines, and make commercial decisions. What is often overlooked, however, is that China’s pace and approach to AI adoption looks markedly different from much of the rest of the world.
In China, AI is deployed at speed deeply embedded into product development, digital go-to-market strategies, and day-to-day commercial execution across both B2B and B2C sectors. Shorter feedback loops, rapid experimentation, and cross-functional adoption enable faster scaling, moving beyond isolated pilots into organisation-wide transformation. For Swedish businesses, the question is no longer if this shift will impact competitiveness, but how quickly to respond.
On 23 April, Folke Engholm — a Swedish-born serial entrepreneur based in Shenzhen for over twelve years will share practical insights into AI-driven transformation through the lens of “Chinese speed.” As Founder and CEO of Viral Access, with more than 20 years of experience in China, Folke brings a unique, on-the-ground perspective on what sets China’s AI ecosystem apart and where it is heading next.
