Marking a decade of the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), global leaders are spotlighting the power of public-private partnerships to drive sustainable development. Private enterprises, from the Chinese mainland to Africa, are now seen as essential collaborators in building infrastructure, boosting tech innovation, and bridging economic gaps worldwide.
Why Private Enterprises Matter
In a recent dialogue, Sanda Ojiambo, CEO of the UN Global Compact, emphasized that businesses are the \"hidden champions\" of BRI’s success. \"They bring agility, fresh ideas, and resources that governments alone can’t match,\" she noted, comparing the initiative’s growth to a \"global collab\" between nations and companies.
Sustainability as a Shared Goal
Ojiambo highlighted that BRI projects are increasingly prioritizing green energy and digital connectivity, with startups and multinationals alike contributing solutions. From solar farms in Southeast Asia to smart cities in the Middle East, sustainability isn’t just a buzzword—it’s a business imperative.
As BRI enters its next decade, the focus shifts to inclusivity: \"Every investment must empower local communities,\" Ojiambo added. With youth-led startups and digital nomads reshaping economies, this initiative is proving it’s more than just roads and railways—it’s about building a shared future.
