Apart from that, a bunch of specialized and sophisticated enterprises that produce new and unique products and hidden champions also took participation, presenting examples of supply chain cooperation between Chinese and international enterprises.

"The inaugural supply chain expo is the right event at the right time," said Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala, director-general of the World Trade Organization. She further noted that some of the impacts faced by the supply chain actually exposed the fragility of the global production networks. Therefore, internationalization in global trade and supply chains should be strengthened, so that all links can play a role.

CISCE is indeed a brand-new concept where everyone can find a place to seek out how to optimize supply chains so that's why such an Expo is significant, said Clas Neumann, Senior Vice President and Head of Global SAP Labs Network.

As an open platform for international cooperation, CISCE has also sparked enthusiastic responses among global business community.
