On behalf of the Academy, Qiu Baolin extended welcome to the participants of the lecture. He pointed out that as the central committee for deepening overall reform passed the Guidlines on Accelerating Developing World-Class Companies this March, Chinese enterprises have entered into a new development stage. In this period of time, Chinese entrepreneurs should more develop global insight, global vision and global mindset, and analyze international landscape, game rules and future trajectory from both macro and micro perspectives. With more broadened, open and deepened horizon, the entrepreneurs are expected to look into the future and the "high-hanging fruit", and to listen to and exchange ideas with the world in an inclusive manner.

In addition, participants are supposed to leverage the lectures to gain better understanding of Chinese characteristics from comparing international communities and learn from the best practices with a more open attitude.
