As the flagship event of "Invest in China", the 25th China International Fair for Investment and Trade (CIFIT) will feature an upgraded "Exhibition B1 Foresee the Future" Capital Project Matchmaking Pavilion (referred to as "Pavilion B1").

A series of supporting activities will be held to facilitate efficient connections. During the five-day event, one business deal is expected to be secured every eight minutes, with an average of 172 successful project matchings per day.

Pavilion B1 will feature five main zones: the Future TED Central Stage, the Conference Area, the Project Exhibition Zone, the Business Matching Area, and the Dining Section, creating an immersive venture capital ecosystem.

The Future TED Central Stage will host presentations by leading investment figures, while three themed meeting rooms will conduct five-day project roadshows focusing on 12 key industry tracks.

Pavilion B1's series of events anticipates participation from over 200 industry leaders, more than 6,000 high-quality projects from around the world, and sector leaders across 12 industries, with attendance confirmed by UNIDO, UNCTAD, multinationals like Tesla and Huawei, and VC association presidents.

This year's CIFIT will launch its precision matchmaking mechanism 30 days in advance, conducting in-depth screening, targeted matching, and pre-event alignment of projects and capital needs. The roadshow will feature dedicated "one-on-one" closed-door negotiations to ensure efficient project-capital implementation.
