Beijing just hosted the China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) – a mega-event turbocharging global collaboration in tech, sustainability, and more! With nearly 200 countries and regions participating since 2012, this year's fair proved innovation thrives even in challenging times.
Under the theme 'Global service, mutual benefit and sharing,' CIFTIS 2023 spotlighted cutting-edge sectors like:
• Digital economy & AI solutions
• Green energy breakthroughs
• Health tech advancements
• Cultural-tourism fusion
Pakistan's trade counselor Ghulam Qadir called it 'one of the world's most important exhibitions', while Nigeria's ambassador Babagana Wakil highlighted its role in boosting South-South cooperation.
President Xi Jinping's vision for open collaboration is paying off: CIFTIS has become a launchpad for multinational partnerships, from smart city projects to climate-friendly tech swaps. It's not just about trade – it's about shared growth in our digital-first era.
