The national trade fair gets the power of momentum

One year ago, CIEF, this state-approved country-level trade fair, was officially settled in Guangzhou and becomes a window for the world to see Guangzhou's vitality in innovation and entrepreneurship and the prosperity of China's new economy. CIEF 2017 exhibited over 1300 achievements with technological innovation and has facilitated the intent of cooperation for 160 projects throughout the year, 63 projects among which have been completed with the dealing price as high as 6285.84 million Yuan.
