BEIJING — China has reaffirmed its commitment to attracting and utilizing more foreign investment, as Vice President Han Zheng addressed the Invest in China Summit 2024 in Beijing on Tuesday.
“Investing in China is investing in the future,” Han declared to an audience of over 140 entrepreneurs and representatives from foreign business associations spanning 17 countries and regions. “China is willing to share opportunities and grow together with enterprises from all over the world, promoting the building of an open world economy.”
The summit, jointly hosted by the Ministry of Commerce and the Beijing Municipal People’s Government, marked the inaugural event of the “Invest in China” campaign—an initiative aimed at attracting foreign investment and helping overseas companies better understand China’s market opportunities.
Han emphasized China’s dedication to expanding high-level opening up and creating a first-class business environment that is market-oriented, law-based, and internationalized. “We will unswervingly expand our high-level opening up to the world and promote a stable and smooth flow of the global industrial and supply chains,” he said.
The “Invest in China” brand represents China’s practical actions to engage more deeply with the global economy. The government campaign seeks to facilitate foreign investment by providing clearer insights into China’s economic landscape and policy directions.
Attendees at the summit expressed optimism about China’s market potential and the government’s commitment to openness. The event served as a platform for dialogue between Chinese policymakers and international business leaders, fostering mutual understanding and cooperation.
As China continues to position itself as a key player in global economic globalization, initiatives like the Invest in China Summit signal the country’s readiness to engage with global partners and enhance international economic collaboration.
