I'm David Ferguson. In the summer of 2023, I was invited to write anew book on the development experience of Zhejiang Province. Zhejiang has undergone a remarkable transformation, particularly in the two decades since the turn of the century.

For historical, cultural, and social reasons that I will try to explore in this program,over the centuries Zhejiang has always been a vigorous center of entrepreneurship, and its people have ranged far and wide across China and through out the wider world in pursuit of opportunities.
