EP20. Visa K: China’s Bet on Youth, Talent, and Innovation
Description
This week, we spotlight a quiet but significant shift in China’s talent strategy: the introduction of the new K visa, aimed at attracting young, international STEM talent.
What does this tell us about China’s changing immigration posture? How does it compare to the US tightening its H-1B program? And what signals does it send to the world about China’s innovation ambition and talent competition?
Host Xing Zheming breaks down what the new visa means, why it matters, and what questions remain unanswered—especially for China’s own youth and global watchers alike.
This isn’t just a visa—it’s a strategic move in the global race for innovation leadership. As China adjusts its approach to global talent mobility, it’s worth watching closely.
