The sixth China International Import Expo (CIIE) is buzzing with global flair as 69 countries and three international organizations showcase their unique products and cultural treasures. 🌐 Over 90% of participating nations—64 in total—are Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) partners, proving the initiative’s role as a bridge for collaboration.
First-time exhibitors like Honduras and Nicaragua are stealing the spotlight with coffee tastings and vibrant textiles, while veterans like Kenya bring AR-powered wildlife safaris to the expo floor. 🦒📱 Interactive zones let visitors ‘travel’ the Silk Road digitally, blending tradition with tech.
‘CIIE isn’t just about trade—it’s a dialogue,’ said a delegate from Sri Lanka, where a holographic tea ceremony drew crowds. ‘We’re sharing stories, not just goods.’
From Serbian robotics to Indonesian batik workshops, the expo highlights how BRI fosters win-win partnerships. Young entrepreneurs and investors are flocking to sustainability-focused panels, hinting at tomorrow’s green economy trends. 🌱💼
Grab your virtual passport—this is globalization, reimagined. ✨
