Karishma Vaswani explores the Chinese companies and brands attempting to go global.

As part of BBC World News' Designed in China Season, the BBC's Asia Business Correspondent, Karishma Vaswani, explores the Chinese companies and brands attempting to go global.

As part of BBC World News' Designed in China Season, Karishma Vaswani meets three companies, each of them leading the way ahead in their respective fields, to find out.
