4th CISCE in Beijing: 1,200 companies, 85 countries and a new level of digital innovation in global supply chains
676 enterprises from 85 countries, over 160 new products and technologies, record foreign participation. CCPIT: supply chains remain resilient despite disruptions, and mutually beneficial cooperation is the only path to success.
As reported by CCTV+, the China International Supply Chain Expo (CISCE) will highlight the importance of resilience and innovation in global supply chains, as stable networks remain vital for economic growth amid technological transformation, said a representative of the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT). Lin Honghong, Vice Chairperson of CCPIT, said the event aims to showcase digital innovation and provide a platform for cooperation to enhance supply chain resilience.
"Despite some disruptions in recent years, the underlying trend has not changed, and the resilience of industry and supply chains remains high. On the one hand, a new wave of technological revolution and industrial transformation is accelerating, and the global economy is rapidly moving towards digital, green and intelligent development. This creates a powerful engine for the upgrading of global supply chains. On the other hand, companies around the world are increasingly recognising the deep interconnectedness of economies. No business can survive and thrive without mutually beneficial cooperation," Lin said.
She stressed that the 4th CISCE, held against the backdrop of China's 15th Five‑Year Plan, features record international participation and a focus on digital innovation. "Indeed, the start of China's 15th Five‑Year Plan makes the fourth CISCE a defining one. We are seeing a huge leap in the international composition of participants: a total of 676 Chinese and foreign enterprises and institutions will showcase their products together with their supply chain partners, meaning that more than 1,200 companies and institutions will take part. International participation is growing with each expo, and the share of foreign exhibitors is setting new records every year. This year also marks the true debut of the digital and intelligent CISCE. With upgraded digital technology chains incorporating more intelligent elements and a dedicated AI zone, the CISCE Launchpad will feature more than 160 new products, technologies, services and scenarios," Lin said.
"Our core philosophy has always been to promote synergy within and across supply chains, stimulate innovation and strive for mutually beneficial outcomes. We hope that all parties can use the CISCE platform to expand their supply networks and deepen industrial cooperation. Our goal is never to move forward alone, but together with partners to move far towards a bright future," she added.
The 4th CISCE will be held from June 22 to 26 in Beijing. A total of 676 enterprises, specialised firms and industry organisations from 85 countries, regions and international organisations have confirmed their participation, which translates to more than 1,200 companies when partner chains are counted.
CISCE is one of China's key platforms for showcasing global supply chains. In 2026, the expo is being held for the fourth time against the backdrop of the 15th Five‑Year Plan (2026–2030), which focuses on digitalisation, green development and technological modernisation. More than 160 new products at the CISCE Launchpad range from AI solutions to intelligent manufacturing systems. The record share of foreign participants confirms that global business retains its interest in the Chinese market despite geopolitical challenges.
When 1,200 companies from 85 countries gather in one place to showcase their supply chains, it is more than an expo. It is a cross‑section of the global economy — alive, breathing, connected by thousands of threads. CCPIT speaks of "mutually beneficial cooperation" not as a slogan, but as the only working tool. In a world where chains break and are rebuilt, those who know how to rebuild them stay afloat. 160 new products and technologies are not just numbers. They are the answer to how to make the global economy smarter, cleaner and more reliable. And while supply chain synergy is discussed in Beijing, the next phase of global trade will be born outside the exhibition centre — without old patterns, but with new rules.
