The China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS) kicked off in Beijing on September 2, 2023, under the inspiring theme of \"Opening up Leads Development, Cooperation Delivers the Future.\" This year's event spans nine key areas, including financial, cultural and tourism, education, sports, supply chain and business, engineering consulting and construction, health and hygiene, environmental, and telecommunication, computer and information services. With participation from over 80 countries and international organizations, alongside more than 2,400 enterprises, CIFTIS stands as a global hub for service trade and cultural exchange.
A standout experience at the fair was Andres Ospina from Colombia, who on September 4 explored Shougang Park. Beyond immersing himself in Chinese traditional culture, Andres visited the exhibition stands of Peru, Ecuador, and Syria, effectively taking visitors on a global cultural tour. He highlighted that what captivates him about CIFTIS is the unique platform it provides for cultures worldwide to communicate and collaborate, fostering international understanding and cooperation.
CIFTIS 2023 not only showcases the latest developments in various service sectors but also serves as a melting pot for global talents and ideas, aligning perfectly with the aspirations of young global citizens, business enthusiasts, and cultural advocates around the world.
