In an era defined by trade tensions, digital disruption and global uncertainties, China has charted a different path: reform over isolation, cooperation over hegemony. After more than four decades of policy shifts, where does this journey head next? Who better to unpack the story than Zheng Bijian, the strategist behind the "peaceful rise" concept and founding chairman of the China Institute for Innovation and Development Strategy?
Since the first wave of reforms in 1978, China’s economy has grown from a fledgling base to the world’s second-largest, transforming global supply chains, tech innovation and investment flows. Now at 40+ years, reform isn’t just a domestic narrative—it’s a catalyst for new market opportunities, sustainable development and cross-border collaboration.
On July 18 at 11:30 a.m. BJT, Zheng will go live for an in-depth discussion on why China continues to reform after all these years, and how those reforms can translate into shared growth worldwide. From opening up emerging sectors to driving green tech and digital infrastructure, he’ll explore the levers that might shape the next era of global opportunity.
Don’t miss this chance to hear from one of China’s leading policy thinkers on the future of reform and what it means for businesses, policymakers and young innovators around the globe.
