On February 26, more than 100 representatives of Zhejiang businessmen, logistics and shipping companies at home and abroad and relevant first-class departments gathered together to "discuss Zhejiang Pianhai and work together to build a strong port", talk about friendship, cooperation and the future.
This gathering led by the first department is intended to promote in-depth communication and exchanges between Zhejiang businessmen and Zhejiang and Hong Kong, aiming to serve and ensure the logistics needs of Zhejiang businessmen after "going global", and feed back the construction of Zhejiang's world-class strong port, and jointly promote the development of Zhejiang's marine economy.
As an important starting point of the three "No. 1 projects" and one of the ten major projects, building Zhejiang Seaport into a world-class strong port is a key project and key engine for the Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee and the province to promote the high-quality development of the province's economy.
Zhejiang businessmen are one of the largest, most influential and most wealth-creating businessmen in China, an important force for Zhejiang's innovation and development, transformation and upgrading, and an important engine for common prosperity and modernization. Zhejiang businessmen and Zhejiang and Hong Kong have a natural blood connection, and only by working together can we achieve greater mutual benefit and win-win results.
The Zhejiang Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Party Committee are the first in the country to establish the Department of Marine Economic Development, which is to coordinate all kinds of sea-related and port-related resources, and to build up the orientation and responsibility of a strong marine economy. Yang Shengjie, director of the Zhejiang Provincial Department of Marine Economic Development, said that in the past 2023, the cargo throughput of Ningbo Zhoushan Port ranked first in the world for 15 consecutive years, and the container throughput ranked among the top three in the world, with more than 300 routes and more than 200 countries and regions around the world. In his view, Zhejiang, Hong Kong and Zhejiang businessmen are the two "trump cards" for building a world-class strong port and building a new model for the implementation of the maritime power strategy in Zhejiang. "Together with the provincial departments and Zhejiang Provincial Seaport Group, we have the responsibility to set up a platform for Zhejiang businessmen to 'go global', empower the development of Zhejiang businessmen, and make efforts for Zhejiang's economy! ”

Through the earnest discussions, we have effectively built a platform for linkage and exchange and cooperation between the government, Hong Kong and enterprises, which is a 'booster' and enhances mutual understanding and trust. "We deeply feel the determination and ability to do practical things for the people and optimize the environment for enterprises, and we are full of confidence in the future development. ”…Focusing on the theme of "Discussing Zhejiang and Building a Strong Port Together", the forum focused on ensuring the logistics needs of Zhejiang businessmen to "go global" overseas, strengthening the all-round cooperation between Zhejiang businessmen and Zhejiang and Hong Kong, and jointly promoting the high-quality development of Zhejiang's marine economy.
