2026-01-23
The Swiss town of Davos in winter is covered in white snow. From January 19th to 23rd, the World Economic Forum 2026 Annual Meeting with the theme of "The Spirit of Dialogue" was held here. Nearly 3000 representatives from more than 130 countries and regions around the world engaged in exchanges and dialogues on important issues in the fields of economy, geopolitics, technology, and more. The attendees believe that China's economy will achieve remarkable results in 2025, demonstrating strong resilience and vitality. China adheres to high-quality development, expands high-level opening up to the outside world, and injects valuable confidence and scarce certainty into the development of the world economy. Technological innovation brings opportunities for China's economic growth "Walking in the small town of Davos, the exhibition and recommendation activities of globally renowned enterprises, government agencies, and international organizations are rich and colorful, and Chinese elements can also be seen everywhere. As soon as the humanoid robot developed by China made its debut, it immediately attracted attention (see photo, taken by our reporter Shang Kaiyuan). During the annual meeting, the World Economic Forum released its latest report, selecting a new batch of "Artificial Intelligence Application Stars" with high global influence. Along with the first batch of names announced during the 2025 Summer Davos Forum, nearly half of the cases come from China. Roman Mouland, founder of French warehousing robot company Ecsot, told our reporter that China occupies an important position in the world economic pattern and influences the development direction of the world economy. "In this process, technological innovation and progress are indispensable. Gabriel Olszewski, an entrepreneur from the Dutch healthcare industry, stated that there is currently no shortage of innovative ideas globally. What is truly scarce is the ability to implement technology applications and implement them on a large scale. China attaches great importance to the implementation of technology transformation and has achieved remarkable results. Roshan Jaya, CEO of management consulting firm Kejie Group Nordic, said, "The pace of innovation in China's cutting-edge fields has accelerated, and the cycle from concept proposal to final implementation of products has significantly shortened." Peter Hoyt, one of the 2025 Nobel laureates in economics and a Canadian economist, stated that in the past few decades, China has not only achieved rapid economic development, but has also become a global leader in multiple key technologies and industries. "Technological innovation has given China an advantage in economic growth. Mehdi Gissari, Chief Technology Officer of AI71, an artificial intelligence technology company, said, "China is at the forefront of the world in research and development in areas such as artificial intelligence and green technology. China's economic development speed is remarkable and it is one of the main contributors to the global economy." "The investment practices of Chinese enterprises in infrastructure, clean energy, and digital economy are becoming a new paradigm for sustainable investment. ”Li Nan, Director of the Investment and Enterprise Division of the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development, stated that this is highly consistent with the concept of "investment for sustainable development" advocated by the conference, and will add more confidence and momentum to global economic recovery and long-term stable development. The indispensable partner for achieving green transformation "is displayed on a large screen in the forum's annual exhibition hall, with a constantly rising number that records in real-time the destruction of global forests, highlighting the many challenges that still exist on the path of green development in various countries. In recent years, China has played an important role in promoting and leading the global green transformation, which has sparked discussions and praise from attendees. Zebulon Vilakazi, a member of the South African Academy of Sciences and president of the University of Kingsoft, stated that China's green transformation has achieved remarkable results. Through medium - and long-term planning, China has promoted green development and gradually formed a complete industrial system. "China has accumulated rich technology and experience, and is an indispensable partner for countries to achieve green transformation." In the discussion on the future development of electric vehicles, Li Ke, Executive Vice President of BYD, said that electric vehicles are becoming an innovative carrier that integrates technologies such as autonomous driving and artificial intelligence. The success of China's related industries is attributed to clear and stable long-term policies. China's firm commitment to carbon reduction targets has enabled the manufacturing industry to fully invest in innovative development. Through technological empowerment, China is helping other regions around the world accelerate their green transformation process. ”Sebastian Bakp, Executive Director of the World Economic Forum, said that in the field of photovoltaic power generation, thanks to Chinese technology, the cost of solar power generation has significantly decreased. China is also actively promoting the development of energy storage technology and playing an important role in the development of electric vehicles and other fields. Jonathan Klein, CEO of Jinrui Fund, stated that over the past decade, China has helped many countries build green infrastructure. China's green transformation has released new development opportunities, and many countries actively engage in green cooperation with China, benefiting from China's technology. Multiple reports released by the World Economic Forum, a staunch supporter and key participant of multilateralism, have pointed out that geo economic fragmentation, policy uncertainty, and supply chain restructuring are continuously weakening global market confidence. At this point, a predictable and responsible economic partner is of great significance for stabilizing market expectations. The attending guests believe that China has always emphasized maintaining the stability and smoothness of the global industrial and supply chains, and actively promoting the common development of all parties through continuous expansion of openness. As the world's second-largest economy, China achieved 5% economic growth last year, continuing to maintain a steady growth momentum, demonstrating the strong resilience and enormous potential of the Chinese economy. ”Patricia Delile, the Minister of Tourism of South Africa, stated that "China is a 'determining factor' in world development. While achieving its own development, China deepens practical cooperation with developing countries, including South Africa, in infrastructure construction and other fields to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results." Yin Sirui, Global Executive Vice President of AstraZeneca, a pharmaceutical company headquartered in the UK, said that China's market size, business environment, innovation capabilities, and other factors continue to attract companies to increase investment, and "Chinese innovation" plays an increasingly important role in the global business expansion of multinational enterprises. He stated that from China's "15th Five Year Plan" proposal, the outside world has seen positive signals of China's expansion of high-level opening up to the outside world, as well as new opportunities brought by China's sustained economic growth. Multinational corporations have full confidence in China's long-term development prospects and business environment, and look forward to these forward-looking policies further promoting deeper international cooperation. China has always been a staunch supporter and key participant of multilateralism. ”Borg Brend, President of the World Economic Forum, stated that China's accelerated development in cutting-edge technology is expected to bring productivity improvements and huge growth opportunities in the coming years. "This is one of the reasons why we remain optimistic about global economic growth." Through technological innovation to cultivate growth, green transformation to expand space, and responsibility to accumulate trust, China is providing more opportunities and boosting confidence for global development with its high-quality development.
