BEIJING, July 19 (Xinhua) — With global supply chains undergoing major restructuring, the ongoing China International Supply Chain Expo (CISCE) acts as a catalyst for enhancing supply chain resilience, Zhou Xing, head of public affairs at PwC China, told Xinhua on Thursday.

As the world's first national-level platform dedicated to supply chains, the expo helps build connections between Chinese and international companies, promote technical coordination and deepen economic cooperation, Zhou Xing said.

According to her, CISCE provides a highly effective meeting platform and enables companies to align technologies, standards and markets, promoting global collaboration.

For Chinese companies, the expo provides an opportunity to expand their international presence and directly connect with global supply chain hubs. For multinational companies, it provides an opportunity to gain access to China’s vast market, mature industrial ecosystem, and strong policy support.

Global supply chains are shifting from a model focused solely on efficiency to one that prioritizes sustainability. Companies are diversifying their supply networks to balance cost and security, turning to regional clusters while maintaining global coordination, Zhou Xing argues.

According to her, in the context of accelerating digital transformation, technologies such as artificial intelligence and the Internet of Things are breaking down information barriers, increasing the speed and accuracy of the entire supply chain.

“Green standards, including carbon tracking and sustainability metrics, are becoming necessary across all industries. Supply chains are evolving from linear models to cross-industry ecosystems, especially in emerging sectors such as the low-altitude economy,” said Zhou Xing.

“China is playing an increasingly important role in this shift,” she said. “It is no longer just a manufacturing base, but an innovation hub. By integrating digital tools and investing in strategic sectors such as electric vehicles, renewable energy, and biotechnology, China is strengthening its position in global value chains.”

The government's commitment to developing new-quality productive forces is also changing corporate strategies. According to her, this policy priority is driving environmental and digital transformation across all industries.

Zhou Xing expressed confidence that China's business environment remains very attractive for multinational companies looking to restructure their supply chains.

The country's institutional openness, market scale and leadership in green and digital technologies provide a solid foundation for transformation, she added.

Identifying growth areas such as advanced manufacturing, low-carbon industries and digital and physical integration, Zhou Xing said they are in line with both China's industrial upgrading goals and global trends, making the country a key destination for supply chains in the future.

“China offers the space, political stability and innovative momentum that global businesses crave,” she said, adding that “venues like the China International Supply Chain Expo are helping businesses from all sides navigate uncertainty and achieve new growth.” –0–
