Within the framework of Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation, the forum serves as a platform for dialog and exchange, connecting business leaders with policymakers across the economic, financial, science, and technology sectors. "We need to stay committed to opening-up, and work together to create new space for Asia-Pacific development, to enhance connectivity and jointly build a new model of Asia-Pacific cooperation, to deepen coordination and jointly shape new strengths in Asia-Pacific innovation," said Ren Hongbin, chairman of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade.

"This year, China has really focused on productivity and innovation. So, by taking the lead on these new growth engines, China is really able to put together a consensus on the future direction that we need to take as an organization," said Eduardo Pedrosa, executive director of the APEC Secretariat. The event is also closely aligned with this year's China International Supply Chain Expo, which will open one day after the forum. Business representatives attending the forum will also visit the expo to engage with exhibitors and exchange views on global supply chain cooperation.
