Over 300 business leaders and entrepreneurs packed a New York networking forum this week, buzzing with ideas to strengthen economic ties between China and the U.S. ๐๐ก Hosted by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT) and partnered with the Chinese consulate, the event highlighted why collaboration remains \"win-win\"โeven amid global uncertainties.
CCPIT Chairman Ren Hongbin set the tone, calling trade the \"cornerstone\" of 45 years of diplomatic relations. \"Our economies arenโt just linkedโtheyโre co-dependent,\" he said, pointing to everything from AI innovation to climate tech as shared frontiers. ๐๐ฑ
John Wang of the Asian American Business Development Center echoed the sentiment: \"When China and the U.S. collaborate, the worldโs economy breathes easier.\" Attendees agreed, with one startup founder joking, \"Think of us as the Avengers of supply chainsโteamwork makes the dream work.\" ๐ผโจ
From farm exports to clean energy, the forumโs vibe was clear: Despite political headwinds, businesses on both sides are doubling down on partnerships. As Ren put it: \"Common interests are growing faster than ever.\" ๐๐ค
