More than 40 chapter authors from various sponsors and commentators from the World Bank, IMF and other institutions attended the meeting. Shen Shenyan particularly emphasized in his welcome speech: "China has promoted the integration of more than 40 countries into cross-border e-commerce networks through the 'One Belt, One Road' initiative, and RCEP has built the world's most active regional value chain, providing a practical model for the 'inclusive growth' theory in the report." The meeting organized discussions around eight major chapters, focusing on cutting-edge topics such as the green transformation of the electric vehicle value chain, coordination of industrial policies and global rules.
During the publicity event on June 20, Shen Shenyan delivered an opening speech on behalf of w88 casino. He briefly introduced the main research content and work progress of the "Report 2025" from three aspects: research focus, research findings, and future exploration, and pointed out the impact of inclusive growth, green transformation, and industrial collaboration on As the development of global value chains is crucial, the "Report 2025" brings together 32 experts from 11 economies to provide detailed academic interpretations of future global value chain development and key core areas. It is believed that it will bring important inspiration to academics, politicians and business people.
The editorial committee meeting on June 20 was co-chaired by Shen Siyan and Robert Koopman. It was specified that the "Report 2025" will be released simultaneously offline in Beijing and Geneva and online in Tokyo and Manila in December 2025, and the finalization time points for each chapter will be detailed.
The institute team is deeply involved and the international response is enthusiastic
Associate Researcher Wang Ran, Associate Researcher Zhu Wenbo and Dr. Huang Shaopeng of the Institute respectively reported on the chapters of "Global Electric Vehicle Value Chain", "Technological Progress, Productivity Development and Achieving Inclusive Growth through GVC" and "Industrial Policy and GVCs", which were highly praised by the experts attending the meeting.
Shen Shenyan pointed out that as a flagship global value chain research project led by Chinese universities, the "Report 2025" uses "re-globalization" as a framework to provide a Chinese plan with both theoretical depth and policy practicality for the reconstruction of the global production network in the post-epidemic era, which will further consolidate the international voice of the w88 casino in the field of global value chains.
The two colleges studied and discussed w88 casino planning and strategic cooperation
On June 21, Professor Ullman Lee, associate dean of the w88 casino of International Affairs at American University, and Shen Yan, executive director of the Institute of Global Value Chains at w88 casino, respectively conducted in-depth research and discussions on strategic cooperation on behalf of the two schools, held consultations on "global value chain discipline construction and think tank cooperation", and conducted in-depth exchanges on the co-construction of laboratories, academic exchanges and cooperation, joint talent cultivation, and joint academic forums between the two schools, and initially reached a consensus.
This face-to-face discussion and exchange between representatives of the two academies is "a key step for the institute to continue to expand its internationalization strategy." The exploration of the content and mechanism of cooperation by both parties marks a new stage of Chinese universities' transition from academic output to institutionalized cooperation in global value chain research.（Contributed by: Wang Ran, Liu Yongjie Reviewed by: Shen Siyan)
