The seventh China International Import Expo is being held in Shanghai from Tuesday to Friday. According to the Ministry of Commerce, this year's exhibition will attract participants from 152 countries, regions, and international organizations. Among them, corporate houses will have the lion's share, with 3,496 exhibitors from 129 countries and regions participating, surpassing the number of the previous session. Nearly 300 Fortune 500 companies and industry leaders are among the likely participants, marking it a historic high. Among the participants, over 180 companies and institutions will be attending the event for the seventh consecutive time.

As the world's first national-level import expo, the CIIE has expanded its global influence and achieved increasingly impressive results over the past seven years, highlighting China's commitment to further opening-up. The previous expos accumulated intentional transaction volumes exceeding $420 billion; more than 1,130 foreign-funded enterprises and investment promotion agencies were roped in to help the participants, resulting in many exhibitors opening new stores, factories, and R&D centers in China.

For companies, the CIIE is a convergence point that connects the innovative achievements and concepts of global enterprises.

Through the expo, companies can understand customer and consumer demands more directly and extensively, meet those demands with high-quality products, innovative services, and solutions, and promote the localization of innovation in China to influence industries, thereby collaboratively creating a greener, more efficient, and smarter industrial ecosystem.

By continuously introducing new technologies, many companies can unleash unlimited potential in China's energy, industrial, environmental protection, and cutting-edge medical fields. Together with their partners, they will build a greener, smarter, and more sustainable future vision for China.

China provides them with a good business environment and is a strategic market for many international companies. Thanks to the vigorous development of the Chinese market, its economic vitality adds momentum to the global economy. As China continues to expand its high-level opening-up, more opportunities for development will be discovered by foreign enterprises in China.
