Jia Tiesong, Deputy Director of the CIYEC, and heads of the preparatory team briefed on the conference's background and agenda, as well as the preparations for establishing the International Alliance of Young Entrepreneurs Associations (IAYEA).

They also answered journalists' questions on the expected outcomes of the conference and how the IAYEA will promote exchanges between young entrepreneurs from China and abroad, and better support the Belt and Road cooperation and the open world economy.

Nearly 200 representatives of young entrepreneurs as well as heads of commerce chambers and entrepreneur associations from 50 countries are expected to attend the conference, where they will discuss new paths for post-pandemic global economic recovery.
