Conference on International Exchange of Professionals (CIEP) is China’s largest, highest-level, comprehensive gathering of national and international talents and intelligence. The conference has been approved by the State Council, and jointly sponsored by State Administration of Foreign Experts Affairs and Shenzhen Municipal People’s Government and organized by Shenzhen General Chamber of Commerce.

Since 2007, CIEP Shenzhen Forum has always been one of the core sectors of CIEP to attract extensive attention due to its high profile, authority and quality. At previous CIEPs, there had been 32 ministerial officials, over 60 well-known economists, over 70 internationally renowned experts and more than 140 renowned enterprise executives to deliver speeches. In total, more 30,000 enterprise executives and managerial elites had joined this forum. At present, CIEP Shenzhen Forum has become an important globally influential platform and an indispensable session of CIEP for high-end talent recruitment and local talent cultivation.

CIEP Shenzhen Forum acts as a booster for gathering innovative and entrepreneurial talents, improving talent recruitment channels, optimizing work mechanism, and facilitating talent pool building. The forum accelerates generation of innovative ideas and offers talents and intellectual supports for economy, society and science development.

By taking advantage of CIEP, Shenzhen Forum intends to curate a splendid high-end carnival where talents and creative ideas can be collided and win-win opportunities can be shared. This is also the ultimate mission which State Administration of Foreign Experts Affairs, Shenzhen Municipal People’s Government and Human Resource and Social Security Administration of Shenzhen Municipality strive to achieve. When the innovation of knowledge, sci-tech and industry is accelerating at present, we need to study how human resources are driving national economy development. Actions like mutual flow of global talents and capitals, increase of global collaboration and exchange, internationalization of Chinese talents can defend against global talent competition.
