Official: CIIE enhances high-level opening up

The 7th China International Import Expo, scheduled to be held in Shanghai from November 5 to 10, will play its role as a platform to promote high-level opening up, an official said yesterday.

The CIIE serves to showcase China’s major opening-up measures and confidence, to share new development opportunities with other countries, and help improve global economic governance rules and promote the building of an open world economy, Tang Wenhong, assistant minister of commerce, told a press conference.

Tang said this edition of the CIIE has attracted participants from 152 countries, regions and international organizations and has achieved a new record with 297 Fortune Global 500 companies and industry leaders set to attend.

As an important part of the CIIE, the Hongqiao International Economic Forum will include a main forum and 19 sub-forums.

Since its first staging in 2018, the expo has become an important platform spotlighting China’s new development paradigm and high-level opening up and public good for the whole world.

The previous six editions debuted nearly 2,500 new products, technologies and services, with a combined intended turnover reaching over US$420 billion.

In the six editions of the CIIE, more than 1,130 foreign-funded enterprises and investment promotion agencies have been invited to seek cooperation opportunities in various regions. As a result, many exhibitors have opened new stores, factories, and research and development centers in China.

Additionally, this year’s CIIE will feature exhibitors from 37 least-developed countries and over 120 complimentary booths will be provided to support their participation.
