Yet another important report from @StrategyRisks — this one about how @MissouriState reportedly used taxpayer $$ to credential CCP officials in state-owned enterprises, including those designated as national security threats (AVIC) and engaged in human rights violations (iFLYTEK)
Expect this report to start another round of conversations in DC about the nature of higher education cooperation with China…
Breaking: Since 2001, Missouri State University (MSU) — a public university funded by Missouri taxpayers — has operated a MBA and EMBA pipeline for thousands of Chinese executives, officials, and state-owned enterprise (SOE) personnel, including figures tied to China’s defense
The report also examines admissions practices, institutional relationships, and whether tens of millions of dollars in taxpayer support may have helped fund the program.
Missouri State University trained more than 1,500 Chinese government and state-owned enterprise personnel through its MBA programs. Some graduates later held senior roles in China's defense industry. 🧵

Western institutions lend credibility, knowledge, and resources to China's surveillance apparatus.
Without safeguards—human rights due diligence, disclosure requirements, limits on sanctioned partnerships—publicly funded research will continue supporting systems of repression.
This isn't about blocking all China research. It's about recognizing structural reality:
You're not in a neutral academic space when you partner with labs embedded in authoritarian surveillance infrastructure. You're enabling repression.
Today, Strategy Risks is releasing Shared Labs, Shared Harm -- a report on how MIT, Stanford, Harvard, Oxford, and 20+ other Western universities used U.S. and U.K. government funding to become embedded in China's AI surveillance apparatus.

Excited to announce that we found a key correlation between China exposure and stock movement following Trump's Friday tariff threat. Why? China exposure isn't just revenue and supply chains, but also political exposure. Email [email protected] for a note on the subject.
