(Paolo Bazzoni, Chairman of the China-Italy Chamber of Commerce)


During the first part of the Summit, the speakers, both Chinese and Foreign alike, underlined the importance of multilateralism, the need to seek dialogue rather than confrontation, and the importance of China’s confidence in its own strengths and determination to opening up.

Leveraging on the Role of the Business Community will be key, as Business is the main driver for Innovation, digital transformation and technological innovation still representing a crucial part.

CCPIT is committed to keep working as a key link between the Chambers of Commerce and the Government, and welcomes the Surveys and Analysis carried on by the chambers, and is committed to giving its own recommendations when presenting such data to the government.

Working on such recommendations is fundamental for stabilizing foreign trade and investment, especially now that there is a downward pressure on the global economy, and working together and trusting each other is necessary when addressing the crisis together.

During the second part of the Summit, the importance of Green Growth and Climate aspects have been mentioned ask key for Innovation, and several speakers mentioned the important ties and steps forward done by each country with China on such path. In this session, the Greater Bay Area was also reconfirmed as the center of technological innovation.
