The digital economy is booming amid a worldwide trend toward digitization and informatization, quickly becoming a key factor in the revival and expansion of economies worldwide. As an important platform for the development of the global digital economy, the Global Digital Economy Conference (GDEC) 2024 will be held from July 2 to 5 at the China National Convention Center. With the theme of "Opening Up a New Era of Digital Intelligence and Sharing a New Digital Future," the conference will bring together leading thinkers, industry pioneers and innovative practitioners from around the world to discuss and shape the future of the digital economy. The conference hopes to promote the sustained and healthy development of the digital economy through international dialogue and collaboration and advance the building of a community with a shared future for mankind.

From its inception in 2021, the annual GDEC has served as a platform for digital-related international exchanges and cooperation, drawing the active participation of numerous world-renowned academic institutions, industrial elites, and think tanks. This year's conference will bring together leading academics and professionals in the global digital economy, giving the general public an exclusive look into the future of this fascinating industry.

Additionally, prominent scholars, corporate executives, and industry experts will attend the conference to present and discuss the digital economy's most recent findings, trends, and applications. To facilitate the precise matching of supply and demand and the exploration of business opportunities, the "bilateral meeting space" for demand and supply will facilitate face-to-face negotiation and collaboration between the government and business enterprises.

The conference will feature an opening ceremony, a main forum, and six high-level subforums, delving into various topics such as digital industrialization, industrial digitalization, digital governance, and data valorization. Three parallel events—"Beijing Digital Economy Experience Week," "Digital Night," and the "Results Announcement Conference"—will be held, giving attendees a taste of the digital economy's appeal. 

Inviting more international cities to join the Global Digital Economy Partner City Cooperation Initiative is one of the most anticipated highlights of this year's conference, which aims to foster the open innovation network of the digital economy among cities worldwide and within international multi-bilateral frameworks. The main forum will also bring together many domestic and international experts, academicians, and business representatives to deliver speeches and reports, providing a global wind vane regarding policymaking, the latest technology, industry trends, and application models in the digital economy.

The Digital Economy Immersive Experience Zone and the New Technology and Product Release Zone are new features to this year's conference. An all-inclusive platform incorporating interaction, exchange, and collaboration will be laid out through activities like immersive interaction, the launch of new technology and products, and bilateral talks between suppliers and consumers. As expected, the world will get a glimpse of China's remarkable digital economy accomplishments and innovative strength.

The world's attention will again be directed towards Beijing as the GDEC 2024 draws near. It has been announced that the GDEC press conference is scheduled for June 21. During the press conference, the overall situation of the conference, main activities, preparation progress, and key highlights will be introduced to the public. Furthermore, the conference website's registration channel has been officially open since June 14, inviting individuals from all related sectors, both domestic and international, to join the conference, discover the boundless potential of the digital economy, and collaborate for its bright future.
