Our company is Chipotle and we are choosing China as the country that Chipotle should expand into. I am focusing on the political and legal aspects of whether, why, and how the company should enter China.

Each team will choose a domestic or multinational company to study. The team should become familiar with the company's nature and scope of (international) operations. Then, the team is to choose a country in which the company is NOT operating, and study this country based on concepts and material we will cover in class. Finally, the team will form an executive report presentation to the board of directors that outlines the insights from the research conducted, with a focus on whether, why, and how the company should enter the examined country. You will submit an executive report to the chairman of the board. This report will summarize the most pertinent insights that guide your decisions for the company's strategy.
