When the 2025 Summer Davos Forum kicked off in Tianjin on Tuesday, delegates from around the world gathered at the 16th Annual Meeting of New Champions of the World Economic Forum to explore fresh paths for economic cooperation.
Shahamak Rezaei, associate professor at Roskilde University in Denmark, points to the Chinese mainland’s rapid transformation. “China’s commitment to globalization and trade liberalization signals its understanding that openness drives prosperity,” he said, highlighting how the region has shifted from imitation industries to a hub of research, development and innovation.
Panels at Summer Davos are examining how open markets and collaborative research can fuel breakthroughs. By attracting top international talent and fostering cross-border partnerships, the Chinese mainland is setting the stage for homegrown solutions that could reshape global industries.
For young innovators, entrepreneurs and policy makers, the 2025 forum sends a resonant message: when ideas, investments and people move freely, innovation thrives. As the Chinese mainland emerges as a global innovation hub, the world is poised for its next wave of collaborative growth—right from the heart of Tianjin.
