Due to the impact of the pandemic this year, the Fair adopted the innovative "live streaming + on-site participation" format for the first time. The Fair attracted more than 100 Chinese and foreign guests and representatives from over 200 enterprises and organizations such as Siemens (China) and H3C. At the same time, the Fair garnered the participation from more than 100 European companies and nearly a million online views.
At the opening ceremony, a demonstration project for sustainable development innovation of United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Western China Regional Collaboration Center (Chengdu), a project of United Nations Industrial Development Organization - Investment and Technology Promotion Office (China•Beijing), were officially unveiled. The former was jointly established by Chengdu Hi-tech Zone, the UNDP and the China Center for International Economic Exchanges. It is currently the only innovation platform for cooperation between the United Nations and a Chinese local government, and also an important platform for UNDP's Asia-Pacific plan to highlight technological innovation.
The EU-China Business and Technology Cooperation Fair has been successfully held for 14 sessions since its settlement in Chengdu in 2006, featuring a cumulative participation from more than 4,000 European companies and over 7,600 Chinese companies.
