活动简介

Proposed by the Chinese leader Xi Jinping in September 2013 when he visited the Central Asia andSoutheast Asia, the Silk Road Economic Belt and the 21st Century Maritime Silk Road, also known as One Belt One Road (OBOR), is a development strategy and framework, which focuses on connectivity and cooperation among economies primarily China and the rest of Eurasia. It consists of two main components, the land-based "Silk Road Economic Belt" and oceangoing "Maritime Silk Road". The strategy underlines China's pursuit for taking a bigger role in global affairs, and its need for cooperation in areas such as manufacturing, infrastructure and agriculture.

The OBOR Initiative was also promoted by PremierLi Keqiang during his State visit in Asia and Europe in 2014. In February 2015, Vice-Premier Zhang Gaoli, a member of the seven-man Politburo Standing Committee, was appointed to be the leader of the steering committee, with Wang Huning, Wang Yang, Yang Jing, and Yang Jiechi being named deputy leaders. It was the most frequently mentioned concept in People's Daily in 2016.

With this background, an international conference on China’s OBOR Initiative related to economic globalization and internationalization will be held in Xi’an, China’s northwestern economic and cultural center, in October 2017. This conference will be exploring the role and significance of the [g1] OBOR initiative as well as transnational corporations in this initiative. The conference will discuss challenges and opportunities that China brings to the OBOR related economies as a result of its integration into the international economy and business.

The Conference will provide a platform where enterprises, government and academic experts discuss the existing opportunities to perfect economic performance.
