ABOUT
Since its inception in 2009, the Summit has been hosted in various cities including Kuala Lumpur, Melbourne, London, Melaka, Penang, Chongqing, Beijing, Shenzhen, Hong Kong, and Macao. The rebranding to the Global Chinese Economic & Technology Summit reflects the growing significance of technology— especially digital and green innovations—as key drivers of future economic growth. It also addresses the need to tackle global challenges such as climate change, sustainability, and geoeconomic shifts.
GCET is committed to strengthening international cooperation and technology partnerships, while championing the 4P’s: Planet, People, Prosperity, and Partnerships. In a post-pandemic world marked by increased global alignment and multilateralism, GCET’s mission is more relevant than ever. The Summit fosters multilateral cooperation to navigate and address geostrategic and geoeconomic challenges effectively.
