Dear Global Technology Elites,
In this era, technological innovation is breaking through the bottlenecks of human development and shaping the future pattern of the world with unprecedented power. Focusing on the mission of our times, Yongjiang Laboratory has dedicated itself to creating the "Global Elite Forum on Science & Technology", aiming to build an international high-end dialogue platform that transcends disciplinary boundaries and integrates the chain of innovation. Through the collision of ideas to stimulate innovative momentum and exchange of wisdom to lead the transformation of the times, we aim to make a difference.
The third Global Elite Forum on Science & Technology will be ceremoniously held in Ningbo, China in early June 2025. We sincerely invite scientists, science and technology innovation management elites, and entrepreneurial leaders from all over the world to gather in Ningbo, to delve into the critical challenges at the forefront of technology, witnessing the possibilities that could define the next era.
Since its establishment, Yongjiang Laboratory has always been committed to creating a world-class scientific research environment and fostering an open, collaborative international innovation ecosystem. The past two forums have successfully attracted top scholars and experts globally, with more than 300,000 participants online and offline, covering advanced materials, intelligent equipment, precision chemistry, and other cutting-edge scientific directions. This year, we will continue the successful experiences of previous years, further optimize the forum agenda settings, and provide a higher-level exchange stage for talents with the greatest potential through precise targeted invitations.
Here, you will engage in deep exchanges with distinguished scholars from different disciplines and countries, sparking infinite innovation inspiration through the collision of ideas. You will also personally experience the charm of Ningbo, a city where antiquity and modernity intertwine, feeling the profound heritage of Oriental civilization and the vibrant vitality of a modern coastal metropolis, witnessing the beautiful picture of harmonious coexistence and prosperity between the city and talents.
We look forward to the sparks of thought ignited by the event on the banks of the Yong River and sincerely invite global tech elites to join us in creating an unlimited future!
