Among the national pavilions, Canada and Sri Lanka will serve as the guests of honor, while countries like Gabon, Seychelles, and Moldova will make their inaugural appearances.本届博览会第九届汇聚了来自全球的多元参展方。在各国展馆中，加拿大和斯里兰卡担任主宾国，而加蓬、塞舌尔、摩尔多瓦等国家则首次亮相。
Companies from nearly all industries, from high-tech to medical care, automobiles, daily necessities and agriculture, will showcase a range of new products and technologies across its six main areas and an innovation incubation zone. A total of 169 companies will achieve “full attendance” by participating in all nine editions of the CIIE.从高科技到医疗、汽车、日用品和农业，几乎所有行业的企业都将在六大核心展区和创新孵化区展示一系列新产品和技术。共有169家企业通过参加九届进博会实现了“全勤”。
The healthcare sector is a highlight of the six-day event.

“The CIIE has built a fast track for landing medical innovations, enabling a large number of debuting medical exhibits by accelerating their approval and hospital entry,” said Liao Jiacheng, an official with the sector.“进博会为医疗创新落地搭建了快速通道，通过加快审批和医院准入，让众多医疗展品实现首发亮相。”该领域官员廖嘉诚表示。
Elsewhere, the technology sector will feature advanced semiconductor hardware, with globally leading companies like AMD showcasing their latest processors and Qualcomm presenting 6G prototype terminals.在其他展区，科技板块将展出先进的半导体硬件，AMD 等全球领先企业将展示其最新处理器，高通则会呈现 6G 原型终端。
But the event will not only be about frontiers. This year’s CIIE is further increasing its support for “Global South” countries. The event is promoting the implementation of the new “zero tariff” policy for African countries which have diplomatic ties with China, effective this year, and has increased the free exhibition space provided to least developed countries by 17 percent.但本届进博会的意义不止于开拓新领域。今年的进博会进一步加大了对“全球南方”国家的支持力度。展会推动与中国建交的非洲国家于今年起实施新的“零关税”政策，同时将为最不发达国家提供的免费展览面积增加了17%。
Meanwhile, the Asian and African product zone has been upgraded to help niche and distinctive overseas goods break trade barriers and clear the path from “exhibits to commodities,” relying on dividends such as free booth support and tax preferences for purchased exhibits.与此同时，亚非产品专区完成升级，借助展位免费支持、展品采购税收优惠等红利，助力小众特色海外商品突破贸易壁垒，打通“展品变商品”的通道。
In the area, Gabon will look for potential consumers for its signature Minko hibiscus amber beer, which integrates traditional African hibiscus, making its China debut, as well as its distinctive Lippia multiflora herbal tea.在该地区，加蓬将推介其标志性的明科木槿琥珀啤酒——这款融合了非洲传统木槿花元素的产品首次登陆中国，同时还有其独具特色的多花过江藤凉茶。
Seychelles, known as the “pearl of the Indian Ocean,” will promote blue seafood specialities like high-end deep-sea wild fish and natural coconut-based skincare products.被称为“印度洋明珠”的塞舌尔将推广高端深海野生鱼类等蓝色海鲜特色产品以及天然椰子基护肤品。
Running concurrently with the CIIE is the Hongqiao International Economic Forum. Themed “Stable Cooperation, Co-building an Open World Economy” this year, the forum will feature a main session alongside 23 sub-forums and several closed-door meetings.与中国国际进口博览会同期举办的是虹桥国际经济论坛。今年论坛以“稳定合作，共建开放型世界经济”为主题，将设置主论坛以及23个分论坛和多场闭门会议。
Discussions will cover a wide range of topics, including global common openness, global economic rebalancing, artificial intelligence (AI), and green development. The forum will host notable international scholars, including several Nobel laureates and a Turing Award winner.讨论将涵盖广泛议题，包括全球共同开放、全球经济再平衡、人工智能（AI）以及绿色发展。本次论坛将邀请知名国际学者出席，其中包括数位诺贝尔奖得主和一位图灵奖获得者。
A key highlight of the forum will be the release of two flagship reports. The “World Openness Report” will be published for the sixth consecutive year, featuring the latest World Openness Index and specific chapters analyzing China’s market opportunities and openness initiatives.本次论坛的一大亮点是发布两份旗舰报告。《世界开放报告》将连续第六年发布，报告包含最新的世界开放指数，以及分析中国市场机遇和开放举措的专题章节。
Joining it this year is the newly introduced “Export to China Capability Development Report,” which analyzes China’s market potential and import needs from the perspective of its trading partners.今年新增的《对华出口能力发展报告》也纳入其中，该报告从贸易伙伴的角度分析了中国的市场潜力和进口需求。
