Important in promoting Sino-Israel economic and enterprise cooperation, the summit was held in Beijing in January and Tel Aviv in September last year, and nailed down investment letters of intent worth several billion US dollars.
The summit is even regarded as a key to communication between the two heads of state as well as a promotion of "innovative comprehensive partnership."
The gathering was included in the Three-Year Action Plan for China-Israel Intergovernmental Mechanism of Economic & Technological Cooperation signed in March between the National Development & Reform Commission (NDRC) and Israeli Prime Minister's Office.

Zhuhai government officials say that the investment summit supports the national Belt & Road Initiative. They see bright prospects for Sino-Israeli cooperation via business ties in science and technology and consensus in more fields.
It will also attract more high-end innovative resources conducive to the city's innovation-driven and opening-up strategy. Moreover, it will play a big part in establishing the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area as an important innovation cluster.
The event is sponsored by the International Cooperation Center of NDRC, Israel Embassy in China, Consulate General of Israel in Guangzhou, Development & Reform Commission of Guangdong Province, Economic & Information Commission of Guangdong Province, Department of Science & Technology of Guangdong Province, Department of Commerce of Guangdong Province, and People's Government of Zhuhai, and organized by the Zhuhai Huafa and Infinity groups.
