Technology transfer in South Africa

Technology transfer is one of the most potentially beneficial aspects of the China-Africa relationship, but how many training centers, visits to China, etc. actually deliver on that promise? June Sun, who is a MPhil candidate at University of Oxford’s Oxford Department of International Development where she studies international development joins us to discuss that topic. She recently authored a Policy Brief on that subject for theJohns Hopkins’ School of Advanced International Studies’ China-Africa Research Initiative entitled Technology Transfer in Telecommunications: Barriers and Opportunities in the case of Huawei and ZTE in South Africa.
