The past year has seen some of the world's most distinguished business professor move to Asia ? China and Singapore in particular. Professor Arnoud De Meyer, former dean of the University of Cambridge's Judge Business School, who is now president of Singapore Management University, feels the governments are very committed to investing in education and research. Professor Howard Thomas, former dean of Warwick Business School and now Dean of SMU's Lee Kong Chian School of Business, says the investment in research means many Asian schools can now compete at the highest levels in the type of rigorous, data-driven study favoured in US business schools.
