China will step up international cooperation with other APEC economies, so as to promote the electrification and intelligent transformation of the global automotive industry, officials and experts said.
Wang Weiming, director-general of the first department of equipment manufacturing industry at the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology and co-chair of the 43rd APEC Automotive Dialogue which concluded in Shanghai this week, outlined China's commitment to fostering an open and collaborative automotive ecosystem.
"The new wave of technological revolution and industrial transformation, particularly the rapid breakthroughs in frontier technologies like artificial intelligence, has opened new space for the global automotive industry's transformation and upgrading," Wang said.
He extended a warm welcome to global automotive companies to develop their businesses in China and share in the country's market opportunities. "We are willing to deepen cooperation with all parties to jointly build a stable, unimpeded and efficient industrial and supply chain," he added.
