CHINA TODAY 2014年10期

Themed “Creating Value Through Innovation,” the key words for the 2014 Tianjin Summer Davos Forum, held September 10-12, are transformation, innovation, sustainable development, and competitiveness among countries and regions in global collaboration.

With a total of 1,882 entrepreneurs, experts and government heads coming from more than 100 countries and regions, participants in the World Economic Forums Summer Davos Forum in Tianjin attained a historic peak.

The World Economic Forum is a Geneva-based nonprofit organization dedicated to engaging political, business, academic and other leaders in collaborative efforts to shape global, regional and industry agendas.

In addition to the annual winter meeting in Davos, Switzerland, it also organizes the Summer Davos in China each year.

Since the first Summer Davos meeting, or the Annual Meeting of the New Champions in 2007, the Chinese port cities of Dalian and Tianjin have taken turns to host the event.
