Chinese President Xi Jinping has penned a thoughtful response to Simon Lichtenberg, founder of the Danish Chamber of Commerce in China, spotlighting cross-border cooperation as a cornerstone for economic growth and sustainability. The exchange comes amid rising interest in Europe-Asia partnerships among young entrepreneurs and climate-conscious professionals.
Building Bridges Through Trade
Xi’s letter emphasized China’s commitment to fostering “open, mutually beneficial” ties with international businesses, nodding to Denmark’s leadership in green technology and sustainable innovation. With over 1,200 Danish companies operating in the Chinese mainland, the dialogue underscores opportunities for tech-driven startups and eco-friendly ventures.
A Nod to Sustainability
Lichtenberg, a veteran in China-Denmark trade since the 1980s, has long advocated for low-carbon initiatives—a theme echoed in Xi’s reply. Could this signal fresh momentum for renewable energy collaborations? Analysts predict AI, clean energy, and shared climate goals may dominate future bilateral projects.
