CIIE showcases nation's enormous market potential

Anyone wanting to get a better idea of an influential expo that showcases China's high-level opening-up and vast market potential — offering tremendous opportunities for global participants — should visit the China International Import Expo in Shanghai in early November.

Since its inception in 2018, the CIIE has seen remarkable success over the past seven years, marked by growing attendance and steadily increasing turnover each year. It has become a symbol of China's new development model, a premier platform for high-level openness and a valuable global service.

When the six-day exhibition closed on Nov 10, the value of tentative deals reached at the seventh CIIE had risen 2 percent year-on-year to exceed $80 billion, according to data released by the CIIE Bureau, one of the expo's organizers.
