University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center
Plenty of businesspeople were perplexed as to why Concord Medical Services from Beijing bought a fifth of the University of Texas M.D. Anderson Cancer Center Proton Therapy Center in 2012. Despite avoiding in the meddling of the actual university’s ownership stakes, the Chinese company had its profile uplifted. Radiation therapy took off with the inclusion of proton treatment, as relayed by Dr. Jianyu Yang. The man is the CEO and chairman of Concord Medical, which is currently involved in the construction and running of a pair of Chinese proton centers. Such a trade will provide much of the learning and practicality required to wield such advanced technology safely.
Hilton Hotels
All the way back in 1919, Conrad Hilton became supremely wealthy off the creation of Hilton Hotels & Resorts. Incredibly, the whole luxurious enterprise started off with only a few spots, eventually becoming a globally present hotel, seen in 85 countries with a total of 586 hotels. HNA Group, a shipping and aviation multinational from China, purchased a quarter of Hilton’s stakes at $6.5 billion in 2016. It is obviously now the business’ majority shareholder. 2016 also saw HNA buy Carlson Hotels to further entrench themselves within the hospitality industry. With Hilton having been acquired by HNA, it is now valued at more than $26 billion.
