Guangzhou showcases its charm at Summer Davos Forum

Guangzhou, as a major city along the Belt and Road and one of the central cities of the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area, features openness and innovation, said mayor of Guangzhou Wen Guohui, when addressing attendees at the event.

The city boasts a long history and profound culture, an efficient and convenient traffic network, highly concentrated innovation resources, a market-orientated, internationalized and legalized business environment, as well as an urban environment suitable for living, working and traveling, Wen noted.

Guangzhou now actively participates in construction of the Greater Bay Area, promoting construction of the national central city to a new level, and striving to build itself into an international metropolis, guided by Xi Jinping's Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, and implementing the spirit of the 19th National Congress of the Communist Party of China, Wen explained.

In his speech, the mayor invited guests to come to Guangzhou, experience and start up business in the city, and share the "Guangzhou opportunity" for development in the new era.

The Guangzhou Night, as an important stage to spread the Guangzhou voice and show the city's charm, presents unique Lingnan culture to guests every year.

2018 marks the fourth consecutive year that Guangzhou has joined the Summer Davos Forum. The 2018 Guangzhou Night, with the theme of "Vibrant Guangzhou to Bloom the World", highlights the city’s image of innovation and vitality.
