Technological innovation is an important force for humanity to jointly address risks and challenges, promote peace and development. China will firmly adhere to a mutually beneficial and win-win opening-up strategy, continuously increase high-level opening-up efforts, continue to promote international scientific and technological exchanges and cooperation with more open thinking and measures, build an open and innovative ecosystem with global competitiveness, and work together with other countries to create an open, fair, just, and non discriminatory environment for scientific and technological development. I hope that the Pujiang Innovation Forum will adhere to the theme of innovation, inspire innovative ideas, disseminate innovative concepts, and inspire innovative spirit, making new contributions to promoting international scientific and technological cooperation and enhancing the common well-being of humanity.
The theme of the 2023 Pujiang Innovation Forum is "An Open Innovation Ecology: Innovation and Global Links", co hosted by the Ministry of Science and Technology and the Shanghai Municipal People's Government. It opened in Shanghai on the same day.
