/ About GDTE
President Xi Jinping, during the opening ceremony of the 3rd Belt and Road Forum for International Cooperation, announced that the Chinese government will make Global Digital Trade Expo an annual event. As the country’s only state-level expo for digital trade stakeholders worldwide, GDTE is a state-guided, commercialized show event calling for fair play and self-discipline in the markets. It is certainly a barometer for global digital trade, as well as a world-class platform for identifying trends, acquiring services, setting rules, facilitating exchanges, finding partners, attracting enterprises, selecting products, and pursuing future growth.
The 2nd GDTE was successfully staged on November 23-27, 2023 at Hangzhou International Expo Center. President Xi sent a congratulatory letter, and Vice President Han Zheng delivered a speech at the opening ceremony.
