MBA teams work on what is essentially a 3-month consulting project. Companies set the project focus and negotiate with their teams to agree on the scope, schedule and deliverables. That is, our teams work on the problems host companies want to fix. China Lab is not only a class, but also a rare opportunity for world-class, practical analysis and recommendations by some of the brightest young professionals from throughout the world.
 
China Lab teams are composed of 4 business students: 2 international MBAs from Tsinghua University and 2 MBAs from MIT Sloan School of Management. This way we ensure that our teams not only have business expertise but also expertise in Chinese language and culture so that they can function effectively in a Chinese environment. China Lab is popular and demanding, so we have been able to select the best students from the MBA classes. The students have a wide range of backgrounds and expertise, ranging from management consulting and financial services to manufacturing and service operations. For them china Lab represents not only a course but also a singular opportunity to hone their business and consulting expertise.

Michael Shafrir, Zemrani’s teammate and schoolmate, suggested that the magazine should make itself less esoteric by shortening and simplifying its contents.He said: "Our survey of readers and potential readers revealed that there is always a desire for short form content." Shafrir recognized the challenge of switching the academic magazine to online media platforms, as the Harvard Business Review has done. According to Shafrir, the average length of an article in the print version of the Harvard Business Review is usually 5,000 words, whereas the online version would be trimmed to 500 or 700. Having previously graduated from MBA schools, now sat in the classroom as contest judges. Contest judge and Harvard Business School alumnus James Chang also have the same feeling.
