Das, äh, bin ich.

Vielleicht noch zu meinem Background: Ähm, ich hab lange Zeit mit Informatik verbracht, bin darauf auch in den Beruf eingestiegen, hab dann 'n Studium in BWL gemacht und noch 'n Master in Strategie und Marketing, bin leidenschaftlicher Gamer als Hobby und mach viel Do-it-yourself-Projekte.

Und so kam's auch letzten Endes zu dem Pitch von, äh, Cloud Gaming.

Aber heute bin ich da breiter aufgestellt und guck mir eben im Home-Bereich an, welche Features, Services unsere Kunden, ähm, mögen.

His name is Scott Kennedy.

He's senior advisor and trustee chair for Chinese Business and Economics at CSIS.

Scott ha- gives us a perspective on the upcoming summit between the US and China, and more on this week's Trade Guys.

Well, welcome back, listeners.

Well, I appreciate that, and it's always good to talk to you all, and you try to cover the globe, and y- you do so broadly and deeply.

And so I'm a big giant fan.

In the Trustee Chair in Chinese Business and Economics, we try to do our part on this one specific issue related to China's economy and technology, and it's just our luck that this is now a globally important issue for everybody.

And we've got a variety of events that we're doing before.
