One year ago, 20 students from China came to the United States to pair up with 20 counterparts in Connecticut to learn more about entrepreneurship and the global economy. Next week, the 20 Connecticut students will go to Shanghai to do the same thing. The American students are part of the Junior Achievement international exchange program's first-ever exchange between the US and China. They will reunite with the Chinese students in Shanghai and visit businesses, attend workshops led by academic and business leaders and work together on research. "By working together, the students from both countries will advance their understanding of the cultures and dynamics that fuel global marketplaces, and will be better prepared for the jobs and opportunities ahead," said Lou Golden, president of the Junior Achievement of Southwest New England, in a statement. "We are delighted to collaborate in this innovative and dynamic student exchange program, and we are fortunate to have such great partners as JA China and United Technologies Corp."
