China's automotive industry is undergoing transformational changes of upgrading, international development, and diversification, as it becomes more closely integrated with information, new energy, and new material technologies. Upstream and downstream auto parts and after-sales service companies now have unprecedented opportunities for international development, while Chinese auto and power battery firms are rapidly expanding into overseas markets. This internationalised approach promotes collaborative problem-solving and sustainable development, accelerating the convergence of the global automotive industry.
The International Automotive Industry Conference 2024 will focus on "Innovate, transform: driving a sustainable future," uniting experts to explore internationalisation, digitisation, and sustainability in the automotive sector. Discussions will center on industry trends, challenges, and opportunities, supporting enterprises in advancing their global strategies and promoting innovation and sustainable growth.
