We have witnessed and benefited from this 'everlasting' showcase. The CIIE has enabled Fosun's global innovations to continuously transform from 'exhibits' into 'products', while many overseas partners have changed their roles from 'exhibitors' to 'investors'. Fosun believes that healthcare innovation should address unmet clinical needs and bring hope of cure to patients. This year, our showcases in the Medical Equipment and Healthcare Products Exhibition Area center on the latest advancements addressing global clinical needs, with several new products making their debut. We firmly believe that China's high-level opening-up will remain a source of certainty and opportunity for global development. Looking ahead, Fosun will further capitalize on its global industrial advantages to foster more cutting-edge innovations in China, contributing the 'power of Fosun' to fulfill people's aspirations for a better life." Focusing on oncology: advancing from "treatment" to "cure" Fosun is presenting a series of cutting-edge innovative products aimed at advancing oncology from "treatment" to "cure" at this year's CIIE.
