Shanghai‑Linyi cooperation forum boosts global expansion of Linyi Trade City

A special symposium on Shanghai‑Linyi cooperation and the global expansion of Linyi Trade City was held in Shanghai on the morning of August 18.

As China’s pacesetter for opening‑up and a core hub for international trade, Shanghai boasts abundant international business resources. Linyi features profound revolutionary cultural heritage, huge market clusters, far‑reaching logistics networks and dynamic private‑sector economy. The city is pushing forward the Hundred‑Groups‑Thousands‑Enterprises: Trade City Goes Global initiative, striving to build an international commodity distribution hub and an international logistics pivot.

Participants agreed to take this symposium as an important opportunity to consolidate consensus on pragmatic cooperation. Both sides will connect high‑quality resources, advance cooperative projects, fuel transformation and global‑oriented upgrading of Linyi Trade City, and drive high‑quality coordinated development of foreign trade industries in Shanghai and Linyi.

Before the formal meeting, promotional videos including Linyi Trade City Promo and Roadshow Linyi were played. During the session, officials gave an introduction to Linyi Trade City and interpreted 2026 high‑quality development policies for the trade complex. Guest representatives and foreign‑trade enterprise delegates shared their views on cross‑border business development.

Sun Deshi, Vice‑mayor of Linyi, attended the event and delivered opening remarks.
