Four students spent the summer of 2009 in Shanghai investigating how and why some in the Chinese migrant labor force become entrepreneurs. Arun Stewart '11, who tragically passed away this week, contributed immensely to the project. Our initial question "Who is the Migrant Entrepreneur" took us on a tour of the city and its eateries, trying out dumplings and handmade noodles, custards, and shishkabob and conducting interviews with migrant business people from every part of China. Come hear about our findings and our experiences doing summer research in China, with support from East Asian Studies, the Dean's Office, and advice from many members of the faculty. We would like to dedicate this presentation in loving memory of Arun.
