The 27th annual meeting of the Advisory Board of the Tsinghua University School of Economics and Management took place in Beijing on October 13 and 14. The event featured prominent global business leaders, including Apple CEO Tim Cook, Tencent CEO Pony Ma, and Baidu founder Robin Li.

The board, established in October 2000, currently consists of 71 members, including 69 board members. The international contingent includes 53 entrepreneurs, two university presidents, four business school deans, and two Nobel laureates in economics.

Tim Cook currently serves as the chairman of the advisory board. The list of members includes high-profile figures such as Jack Ma, Elon Musk, Satya Nadella, and Mark Zuckerberg. This year, the board expanded to include Jensen Huang and Lisa Su.

During his visit to China this October, Tim Cook engaged in several activities. He started his trip in Guangzhou, where he met with athlete Su Bingtian, and later visited the iQIYI office and the Apple Store in Sanlitun, Beijing.
