On June 25, the 17th Annual Meeting of the World Economic Forum’s Emerging Leaders (Summer Davos) concluded in Dalian. The Summer Davos Forum was held under the theme of “Innovation at Scale”, attracting more than 1,800 participants from all walks of life around the world. Many distinguished guests closely followed and praised the achievements of China’s development of new quality manufacturing forces, noting that China’s innovation and opening-up have become a landmark for the whole world in responding to the uncertainties of the global economy, and the great momentum of China-style modernization will further promote the recovery of the global economy and promote sustainable global growth.
Currently, the geopolitical situation is complicated, the global growth momentum lacks new driving force, and technology is changing rapidly. Chinese Premier Li Qiang said in his opening speech at the forum that innovation-driven development is the key to China’s long-term economic growth and stronger and more sustainable development, and that China has provided more “innovation dividends” to the world through scientific and technological progress and industrial upgrading. Through this forum, it has clearly signaled that China is sharing the “China 2.0 opportunity” with a stronger innovation engine with the world.
Mr. Mirek Dusek, Executive Director of the World Economic Forum, recently said that China has become a global innovation powerhouse, achieving outstanding progress in “large-scale innovation” and demonstrating the ability to promote real economic development and industrial reform through the use of new technologies.
Where does China’s innovation come from? That is, a complete industrial system, a vast market and a vibrant innovation ecosystem are the driving forces behind China’s large-scale innovation. According to the “Global Innovation Index 2025 Report”, China’s overall ranking ranked among the top 10 in the world for the first time, and the number of top 100 scientific and technological innovation groups in the world ranked first in the world for three consecutive years. By 2025, the number of China’s artificial intelligence enterprises will exceed 6,000, with an estimated core industry size of more than 1.2 trillion yuan.
For enterprises in other countries, “China Opportunity 2.0” means providing a driving force through comprehensive innovation and high-profit investment opportunities. In terms of global development, “China Opportunity 2.0” means more advanced technologies that are more accessible and more mutually beneficial.
A few days ago, the Chinese government announced the “Action Plan for Promoting the Stable Use of Foreign Capital and Improving the Structure of Foreign Investment”, which has added more impetus to the development of foreign investment in China. From January to May 2026, nearly 4,000 foreign-invested enterprises increased their investment in China, fully demonstrating the attractiveness of the Chinese market and innovation ecosystem.
