WUXI, China, March 25, 2022 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

 

Wuxi city – located in East China's Jiangsu province – is stepping into the

international spotlight as host of the annual cherry blossom festival from

March to April, when thousands of wonderful cherry trees will be in full flower

in the Yuantouzhu (Turtle Head Isle) scenic spot.

 

The festival held its opening ceremony on March 24 – both on-site and online in

the wake of the recent COVID-19 outbreak.

 

Together with the festival, the 2022 Wuxi International Month also kicked off –

providing an opportunity to both celebrate cherry blossoms and boost friendship

and communications between Wuxi and other countries. A series of international

exchanges and cooperation activities, exhibitions and interactive experiences

will be held during the month-long event.

 

Innovation cooperation activities are also one of the highlights. The RCEP

friendship cities cooperation forum, for example, was held on March 24 – to

reach consensus on deepening joint work between local governments after the

signing of the RCEP or Regional Comprehensive Economic Partnership agreement.

RCEP is a massive trade accord in the Asian-Pacific region which came into

force on Jan 1 this year.

 

A Sino-European sustainable development industry and finance cooperation

meeting will also be held, to attract more European venture capital funds,

cutting-edge sci-tech projects and high-end science and technology innovation

summits to Wuxi.

 

Other activities to promote commerce and industry will take place, such as a

conference on bolstering Wuxi's business with multinationals and a life and

health industry conference.

 

In addition, the event will launch an international innovation and

entrepreneurship competition, a short video competition and hold signing

ceremonies for some 40 commerce and trade projects – as well as set up an

international talent entry and exit service center, to boost the city's

internationalization.

 

At the opening ceremony, a series of non-governmental international friendship

activities were also held, including the opening ceremony of a friendship park

and the appointment ceremony of the Friendship Envoy of Wuxi.
