The China International Import Expo (CIIE) highlights China’s role as one of the world’s largest markets and its commitment to further opening up. This event not only showcases China’s dedication to achieving shared growth with global partners but also injects new energy into the world economy, unlocking vast opportunities. From November 5 to 10, nearly 3,500 exhibitors from around 130 countries and regions are gathering in Shanghai. The CIIE serves as a crucial gateway for the Global South to expand its presence in the Chinese market. In this special CIIE edition of BizTalk, co-produced with Uzbekistan’s Daryo News Agency, we’re joined by a diverse group of guests from both sides, coming together to explore new paths for mutual prosperity across the Global South.
