internatio­nal companies are establishe­d in China,” he said.

“We have cooperated with Chinese companies, and our e-scooters are manufactur­ed in Changsha, China. China is strong in electric vehicle sectors, always keeping up with futuristic design and technologi­es.”

John Morrow, insights lead of 3M Strategy and Business Developmen­t, believes China’s focus on sustainabi­lity innovation holds immense potential.

“Expect to see Chinese innovation­s in sustainabi­lity and green energy,” he said. “There’s not to be one solution that solves all problems of the climate crisis. So the more ideas there are, I think the better all would be.”

Morrow said 3M works with lots of manufactur­ers in China where innovation­s are developing at a fast pace.

“China attaches great importance to innovation capabiliti­es. It is way ahead of others in the installati­on of solar energy. They are driving the industry,” he said.

China’s rise in innovation

Chinese companies have been important forces at CES in recent years, impressing global exhibitors with innovative products and solutions, and showcasing the latest trends and innovation­s in the consumer electronic­s industry.

Liu Chun, vice president of the China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Machinery and Electronic Products, expressed her confidence in China’s increasing­ly important role in the electronic consumer industry.

She said that with the developmen­t of China’s economy, the expansion of market scale, the revolution of the technologi­cal industry and the elevation in the value chain of the industry, China’s status will be further consolidat­ed.

“Judging from CES, an important global industrial exhibition, in recent years, more and more Chinese technologi­cal innovation companies participat­ing in the exhibition rely on quality and technology to win,” she said.

“In the global consumer electronic­s industry chain, especially in the upstream and midstream, more and more powerful

Chinese suppliers have emerged.”

Moreover, she said innovative consumer technology companies in China are also paying more attention to internatio­nal operations, localizati­on and global cooperatio­n.

“’Made in China’ will fight against barriers by openness, eliminate confrontat­ion by cooperatio­n, thereby China is consolidat­ing the foundation of industrial developmen­t, consolidat­ing global status and expanding internatio­nal cooperatio­n,” she said.

“This is the most important foundation and the deepest root of confidence for China’s consumer electronic­s industry.”
