On BIV Today…
If you’ve considered learning Chinese for business, you may want to consider learning Cantonese over Mandarin – or both.

Erin Williams, senior program manager, and Justin Kwan, project specialist, share preliminary insights from Greater Vancouver, where the Cantonese language is seeing a revitalization. Both share why this matters from a cultural and business perspective.
