In an era of resurgent protectionism and volatile trade relations, marked by the escalating impact of Trump-era tariffs, China is delivering a clear, confident message to the global business community: its doors are opening even wider — and the world is welcome.
That message comes to life from June 15th to June 21st, 2025, at what is widely considered China’s most significant international business event of 2025 — the China Business Connection Programme, featuring the Global Sourcing & Investment Summit (GSIS) and exclusive Dalian Business Engagements.
Taking place across strategic economic zones — Beijing, Langfang, Tianjin, and Dalian — and hosted by China’s most influential commercial institutions, including the Ministry of Commerce of the People’s Republic of China (MOFCOM), the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT), and the Dalian Commerce Bureau, the summit isn’t just about connecting people — it’s about redefining global trade dynamics.
As global commerce undergoes a strategic realignment, with companies worldwide seeking reliable, scalable, and politically stable trade partners, GSIS 2025 offers a timely and compelling solution: engage directly with China, the world’s most advanced and adaptive manufacturing and innovation powerhouse.
