The Thunderbird School of Global Management at Arizona State University hosted the "Asia Regional Gathering" Alumni event in Chengdu on March 29, with the Foreign Affairs Office of Chengdu Municipal People's Government as the supporting institute. Zhang Xi, Dean Assistant of the College of International Education at Southwestern University of Finance and Economics (SWUFE), attended as a representative and participated in a panel discussion themed "The Future of Asia".

During the event, Zhang Xi highlighted the university's successful efforts in establishing in-depth collaborations with overseas institutions, aimed at addressing global issues. These partnerships cover a broad spectrum of activities, including talent development, scientific research exchanges, and innovative projects. SWUFE has always valued its friendly partnerships with global universities, especially in recent years, where the university has actively strengthened its international exchanges and cooperation with universities in Central Asia, contributing positively to regional cooperation in Asia.

The participation of a SWUFE representative at the Thunderbird School of Global Management event not only demonstrated SWUFE's firm determination to expand its global presence, but also reflected its continuous efforts to advance Sino-American cultural exchanges and educational cooperation.
