Jinan Strengthens Corporation With Japan

Recently, the 3rd China Japan Industrial Innovation and Development Exchange Conference and the 2023 Japan Import Commodities Expo in Shandong opened in Jinan. The theme of this conference is "Deepening Industrial Cooperation with Japan, Empowering Strong Provinces and High Quality Development". Focusing on the key areas of the cooperation with Japan, such as investment promotion, economic and trade cooperation, commercial circulation, and technological innovation, our city strive to promote this foreign economic and trade cooperation platform and cooperation between China and Japan to a new level.

Jinan has always maintained a good cooperative relationship with Japan. The two sides continue to expand, deepen and strengthen the cooperation in various fields such as cultural exchanges and economic and trade cooperation. Japan is an important trading partner and source of foreign investment of Jinan. Currently, many well-known Japanese companies such as Sumitomo Corporation, Marubeni, and Hitachi have settled in Jinan, becoming witnesses and beneficiaries of Jinan's investment environment and development opportunities. Today, Jinan has unprecedented development opportunities and competitive advantages. Our city sincerely hope that Japanese enterprises can walk into Jinan, get to know Jinan, choose Jinan, invest Jinan, and become partners who work together to promote high-quality development. We solemnly promise to provide the best policy support, the strongest element support, and the most thoughtful service guarantee for enterprises with all our heart and effort. We will carry out deep cooperation in a wider range, higher level, and larger scope, and jointly write a new chapter of the cooperation between Jinan and Japan in the new era!

The event was held at the right time and of great significance. Shandong Province is a province with a large population, culture, resources and economy. Shandong also possesses huge market space and economic development potential. In 2022, the main indicators of trade and investment between the two sides have grown rapidly. This year, the economic and trade cooperation between China and Japan has become more active. Our city is looking forward to achieving more fruitful cooperation results in the next step.

In the signing process of the key projects, 7 key projects made for Japan were collectively signed, involving multiple fields such as environmental protection and energy, modern finance, and commercial circulation. During the event, a video review of this Import Expo was also played, which meant the 2023 Japan Import Expo in Shandong was officially launched. Each district, county, and development zone can communicate and negotiate freely with the attending guests at the venue.
