The Annual Meeting of the New Champions took place in Dalian, China, from June 25-27 this year. Organized by the World Economic Forum, the meeting brought together more than 1,600 global leaders from the public and private sectors, as well as civil society and international organizations, to engage in addressing the most pressing issues on the global agenda under the theme “Next Frontiers for Growth.” Here are three key takeaways from our Partner Qian Wu, who focuses on climate change and sustainability: 1. A new global economy is emerging, where balancing priorities such as technology acceleration and inclusive growth is essential. Governments are adopting coordinated fiscal, trade, and industrial strategies to strengthen economic recovery and curb inflation. This approach aims to create a more resilient and equitable global economic landscape. 2. China, with its super-sized market of over 1.4 billion people, offers a complete industrial support system, an abundant labor force, and a rich talent pool. The diverse scenarios for application and the receptiveness of Chinese consumers to new technologies make China a broad stage for enterprises to pursue innovation and upgrade their products. This environment fosters significant opportunities for growth and development. 3. Companies and organizations are increasingly aware of the need to adopt innovative approaches to minimizing our negative impact on biodiversity and restoring our ecosystem, leading to a nature-positive transition. For private sectors, how to measure the impact and audit the transition are critical to taking action. #ClimateChange #Sustainability #Innovation
