This week’s Podcast Review is about the China Business Podcast.

Description: Is China a threat or an opportunity for your company? Are there real growth opportunities for you in the world’s fastest growing market? Expertise and insight from Technomic Asia China, a market strategy consulting firm with more than 20 years in China.

Comments: This Podcast has very credible content on all things relative to business in and with China. Professionally produced, great use of audio to set the stage, clear diction and static free audio make this an easy Podcast to listen to.

Mixing personal humor with relevant stories this show is valuable if you think China and all of its intended and unintended impacts is important to understand. Here is a sample of some recent content:

- Competitiveness in China
- M&A opportunities and challenges in China
- China’s railways and the WTO ruling on auto parts
- Talking economics: China markets and costs

As I said, all things China and business, there are over 20 Podcasts for your listening pleasure available.

Pluses: Great content, instant play, extensive show notes, subscribe buttons, categories, search, very clean site design.

Minuses: I wish there was more frequent audio content.

Recommendation: If China and business is important to you then you need to listen to the China Business Podcast.

1. It will be a great opportunity the day the “leaders” in Peking decide to change the whole political system and act accordingly to the economic policy they have introduced in the free zones. Let Hong Kong regain its status and have this great country as an inspiration for the future.

   The problem is that you don’t have freedom of speech… I look forward to listen to podcasts (in English) from Asia.

3. I work with the folks that produce the China Business Podcast, helping them publish it and manage the Web site. You mentioned there are “more than 20″ podcasts available. My count shows 37!

   The frequency issue is a tough one, but it’s something we’re working on. We tend to go in spurts, with some unfortunately long spells between podcasts and them runs of many in quick succession. Whatever the case, we try to make sure they’re all worth doing for content’s sake rather than because “it’s time for a new one.”

   Thanks for the review. Glad you enjoy the podcast.
