The 2026 mid-year work conference of the provincial trade promotion system was held in Yiwu on July 28–29. The meeting was chaired by Ying Guohua, member of the Party Leadership Group and Vice President of the Provincial Trade Promotion Council, with Chen Jianzhong, Secretary of the Party Leadership Group and President of the council, delivering a concluding speech.
The meeting noted that in the first half of this year, the provincial CCPIT system, guided by Xi Jinping Thought on Socialism with Chinese Characteristics for a New Era, has firmly established and practiced a correct view of political performance. Centering on the theme of the "Year of Capacity Building and Efficiency Enhancement," it iteratively implemented the "1+7+26" work framework, with the dual brands of "Zhejiang Going Global" and "Zhejiang Win-Win" leading a comprehensive transformation in the CCPIT work landscape. Party-building has fully galvanized the synergy between the cadre team and the system, the effectiveness of trade and investment promotion has steadily improved, and commercial legal services have expanded in scope and quality, fully demonstrating the CCPIT's commitment to serving the nation's overall diplomatic strategy and the province's opening-up efforts.
The meeting pointed out that in 2027, the provincial trade promotion system should achieve a qualitative leap and overall upgrade across four dimensions: system and mechanism, service quality, innovation momentum, and comprehensive efficiency, so as to promote the trade promotion cause to leapfrog and advance to a higher level. In the second half of 2026, we should continue to focus on the theme of "Year of Enhancing Capacity and Efficiency," deeply study and implement Xi Jinping's thought on Party building, continue to carry out the study and education on establishing and practicing the correct view of performance, and solidly carry out ten key tasks.
The meeting emphasized that, facing new circumstances and new tasks, the provincial trade promotion system should pay more attention to grasping the "direction" amidst "changes," achieving "position" through "active engagement," accumulating "value" through "brand building," accomplishing "major tasks" with "small budgets," achieving "efficiency enhancement" through "integration," and demonstrating "responsibility" through "practical work." It should maintain its focus, stimulate vitality, and enhance its capabilities to deliver a high-scoring performance in serving the construction of a high-level, open, and strong province in trade promotion!
