What is 'Summer Davos'

Technology is increasingly shaping the world economy.

That's why more than 1,700 leaders from science, technology, business and government will gather in Dalian, a major innovation hub in north-east China, for the Annual Meeting of the New Champions.

Taking place at the centre of one of the world's most dynamic technology and manufacturing ecosystems, this year's 'Summer Davos' will explore the ideas and industries shaping the decade ahead.

The theme for this year’s meeting is ‘Innovating at Scale’, and participants will be focused on discussing how new technologies can create resilient, inclusive growth.

Sessions will be livestreamed on our website, and you can follow along at #AMNC26.
