Walking in the streets of Dalian, the theme elements of the forum can be seen everywhere.

In order to host this forum, under the guidance of the inter-ministerial coordination group led by the National Development and Reform Commission and the World Economic Forum, Liaoning Province has set up a leading group for the preparation of the Summer Davos, and Dalian City has set up a preparatory committee to present a wonderful international event with the efforts of the whole province and the whole city.

Energy conservation and carbon reduction are hot topics at this forum. Dalian City adheres to the concept of "green" and "frugal", and improves the "green content" of the preparation work. Wang Zhaobao, a staff member of the coordination office of the Dalian Summer Davos Forum, introduced that the main venue of the Dalian International Convention Center adopts the "green certificate" transaction method to achieve 100% "green electricity" supply of the venue. The air conditioning system adopts the "sea water source heat pump" technology, which carries out cooling and heat exchange through seawater, effectively utilizes renewable energy and saves electricity. On the basis of ensuring the design style of the forum and maintaining a high level of preparatory work, the previous furniture and the existing furniture of the venue can be used up, and the furniture repair part accounts for 1/3 of the total number of furniture.

Deepening people-to-people exchanges through culture is a major feature of the preparatory work. In the rehearsal hall of Dalian Acrobatic Troupe, performers are rehearsing for the forum's "Dalian Night" cultural dinner. "Program planning and rehearsals for the cultural dinner started in April, and the actors have been working overtime every day." Dalian Culture Industry Group art director Zhang Rongrong said.

Build a platform for dialogue and exchange, and seek common development through openness and cooperation

The current international situation is complicated, the global economic recovery is weak, and global challenges such as climate change, food and energy security are increasing. In this context, the Summer Davos Forum has attracted much attention.

Chen Liming, head of the World Economic Forum, said that today's international community is facing a complex situation, and there is a greater need for exchanges and dialogue platforms such as the World Economic Forum to build Bridges for all parties to carry out cooperation and solve problems on a global scale.

"Promoting world economic recovery is the common task facing all countries. Countries should work together for common development." Said Busi Mabuza, co-chair of the Summer Davos Forum and chairman of the Industrial Development Corporation of South Africa.

High-quality implementation of the Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership Agreement, advance the China-Asean Free Trade Area 3.0 negotiations, promote participation in the Digital Economy Partnership Agreement, the Comprehensive and Progressive Agreement for Trans-Pacific Partnership... In the face of the challenges of anti-globalization, China has adhered to the basic state policy of opening up, firmly pursued the win-win strategy of opening up, deepened trade and investment cooperation with other parties, and actively maintained the stability and unimpeded flow of global industrial and supply chains, thus injecting new impetus into global development. Statistics show that in the first five months of this year, the total value of China's trade in goods was 17.5 trillion yuan, an increase of 6.3%. The number of newly established foreign-invested enterprises was 21,764, up 17.4 percent year on year. At this forum, China will once again declare to the world its determination to firmly advance high-level opening-up and continue to promote economic globalization.

Yu Hong, a senior research fellow at the East Asian Institute of the National University of Singapore, said that China is opening its door wider and opening up at a higher level, which means more opportunities for the world and helps the world economic recovery.

At this forum, the topic of "Making China's big market a big opportunity for the world" will continue to attract attention. Pan Jiang, director of the International Department of the National Development and Reform Commission, said that the forum will let more people know about the concept and practice of Chinese-style modernization and demonstrate China's firm pace of high-level opening-up. It is hoped that through the Summer Davos platform, more foreign companies will be attracted to deeply explore the Chinese market and share the opportunities of Chinese-style modernization with the world.

Exploring new frontiers of future growth and finding ways for global economic recovery

"As the world is undergoing profound changes, the convening of the forum is of great significance." Chen Liming said that development is the key to solving all problems, and this forum will gather consensus of all parties, focusing on artificial intelligence, biotechnology, quantum computing, energy transformation and other important fields, and promote the world economy steadily towards a more equal, more sustainable and more resilient future.

-- Innovation-driven, scientific and technological innovation to benefit global development.

"At present, a new round of scientific and technological revolution and industrial transformation is in the ascendancy, and cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence and bioengineering are empowering thousands of industries, accelerating industrial transformation and creating social well-being." Jin Xing, chairman and CEO of New Oxygen Group, believes that in line with the trend of consumption upgrading, the majority of enterprises should strengthen innovation practice and increase the supply of high-quality products and services.

"Industrial digitalization is an important aspect of technological innovation. Platforms and industry leaders should open up their digital resource capabilities to help traditional enterprises and smes achieve digital transformation." Xu Xiuxian, president of Huitongda Network Co., LTD., said that the company has developed integrated e-commerce solutions for rural stores to make the operation and management of rural stores more intelligent.

-- Green leadership to build a beautiful and clean world.

"The new quality productivity itself is green productivity, and the majority of enterprises should be driven by green transformation to help global sustainable development." Zhang Lei, chairman of Vision Technology Group, said that at present, the company relies on leading technologies in the fields of fans, energy storage, power batteries, and new power systems, and joins hands with more and more multinational enterprises to promote low-carbon energy transformation, low-carbon industry and green technology development.

-- We should learn from each other and deepen cooperation to add new drivers to global economic growth.

The government, industry, universities and research institutes will use the forum to exchange information, exchange needs, adjust surplus and shortage, reach broader and deeper cooperation, and find more ways and paths for global economic development." Primavera Capital Group founder, chairman Hu Zuliu said.
