At the promotion meeting, Liu Yunxue, general manager of the Capital Convention and Exhibition Group's CIFTIS Center, introduced the preparations for the 2024 CIFTIS telecommunications, computer and information services (ICT) and environmental services.
In terms of digital service trade, the ICT special exhibition will continue to organize exhibition areas around telecommunication services, digital technology, artificial intelligence, integrated circuits, industrial Internet, specialization, special innovation, and international innovative technologies with the theme of "Digital Trade Innovation and Technology Empowerment", covering intelligent manufacturing, commercial cryptography, emergency management, etc., and closely follow the hotspots of the next-generation Internet and consumer electronics industry represented by general large models, digital humans, and virtual reality, and help the development of the digital economy industry with new technologies and new experiences.

At the same time, we will make use of the "Belt and Road" Green Partnership and foreign investment projects to strengthen cooperation in the fields of laws and regulations, environmental technical standards, support environmental protection enterprises to become bigger and stronger, and create favorable conditions for enterprises to "go global".
It is reported that more than 500 representatives from embassies and consulates in China, foreign institutions in China, institutions directly under the Ministry of Commerce, business associations, scientific research institutes, 40 overseas enterprises, as well as institutions and enterprises in the fields of telecommunications, computer and information services and environmental services of the CIFTIS attended the promotion meeting. Alibaba Cloud, IQAIR, Beijing Green Exchange, Nao Technology, China Aerospace Science and Technology International Exchange Center, etc., demonstrated the latest research and service capabilities in cutting-edge technology and green and low-carbon at the scene.
Alibaba Cloud is an old friend of CIFTIS. "For Alibaba Cloud, CIFTIS is a very good platform to showcase the value of technology and brand image, and it also brings us many business opportunities and provides multi-dimensional value. Bi Longfei, director of Alibaba Cloud's overseas solutions, further said that first, the CIFTIS gathered senior experts in many fields, who brought a lot of dry goods focusing on foreign trade policies, compliance control, cross-border payment and other topics, which is very rare for exhibitors, including Alibaba Cloud. Second, CIFTIS brings together many enterprises, builds a platform for communication and communication, pulls enterprises into "group chats", and promotes the exchange and sharing of resources and information between enterprises, and even reaches cooperation to achieve a win-win situation. Third, CIFTIS plays an important role in promoting the formulation and optimization of relevant national policies, and its influence continues to increase. Some of the demands and practical problems expressed by industries and enterprises with the help of the CIFTIS are also expected to receive the attention of relevant departments.
In the context of the vigorous development of digital**, Alibaba Cloud has ushered in a period of opportunity for development. "With the explosion of data, especially the development of AI, the paradigm of doing business has fundamentally changed. Bi Longfei believes that in fact, data plays a fundamental role in the world. With the development of the digital economy, data has gradually become the "protagonist" of the world. Among them, what Alibaba Cloud, as a cloud computing company, can do is to help enterprises process data more efficiently and effectively, and obtain greater value from it.
For example, Bi Longfei said that in the past two years, China's new energy vehicle companies have been "going overseas" with rapid momentum. However, many companies do not understand the overseas market and do not know how to convert overseas demand into tangible benefits. Many enterprises are facing new challenges in their technical and data capabilities, which need to be built together by enterprises like Alibaba Cloud. Especially with the emergence of AI models, Alibaba Cloud is committed to helping enterprises innovate scenarios from both data and AI levels. In his view, it is difficult for Chinese car companies to beat established car companies if they cannot provide differentiated products and services when entering overseas markets. What innovations can Chinese car companies do when they "go overseas"? He believes that it must not be a traditional brand story and values. On the contrary, the innovation of Chinese enterprises in the field of the Internet, including in-car entertainment and humanized design, can be applied to the innovation of automobiles, and the proposition of "reshaping brand value with technology and innovation" will become the innovation point of Chinese car companies "going overseas".
It is reported that as one of the leaders of global cloud computing, Alibaba Cloud has worked with more than 11,000 global partners to precipitate more than 500 solutions and help more than 220,000 Chinese enterprises to travel around the world by virtue of its IT infrastructure covering multiple regions around the world, competitive cloud services, comprehensive compliance qualifications and professional compliance construction capabilities, as well as a dual-support response system at home and abroad.
