The 19th China-ASEAN Expo and the 19th China-ASEAN Business and Investment

Summit, which kicked off on September 16, concluded on Monday in Nanning

As home to the permanent venue of the China-ASEAN Expo, Qingxiu district in

Co., Ltd., accommodates plenty convention and exhibition sectors and urban

commercial resources. Since last September when the cluster area started

operation, more than 90 percent of the enterprises that have settled down there

were those engaged in convention and exhibition-related businesses like

building materials, logistics, arts, information technology, culture and

tourism.

Based on the cluster area, Qingxiu district has created a new exhibition

economy pattern in which exhibitions drive investment attraction, marketing

promotion, tourism, exchange and cooperation.

Statistics showed that in 2021, 221 online and offline conventions as well as

70 online and offline exhibitions were held in Qingxiu district, generating an

income of 1.505 billion yuan and 176 million yuan, respectively.

Also, the total turnover of exhibition activities held in Qingxiu district last

year reached 12.312 billion yuan.

At present, Qingxiu district is moving faster to develop professional and

high-end producer services. According to its plan, at least five convention and

exhibition brands with regional influence will be built in the district.

In the future, Qingxiu district will boost headquarters economy, with focus on

introducing regional headquarters of state-owned enterprises, centrally

administered companies and multinational corporations.
