Openness and innovation will dominate the agenda of this year's Fortune Global Forum in Guangzhou when top executives of the world's largest companies gather in the southern Chinese city, underscoring China's rising role as a strong advocate for globalization and innovation in the international trade arena.
It is the fifth time that Fortune magazine has picked a Chinese city to host its prestigious business forum since the event was created in 1995. It is not only a reflection of the continuous strong interest and attention from international CEOs in the Chinese market but also a manifestation of the country's growing influence in the global trade and economy.
(...) Economists and observers believe that pooling Chinese wisdom and practice on development with international experience will benefit future global development.
