湘非经贸再迎新机！首届中非企业家发展大会启幕长沙

On March 2, the first China-Africa Entrepreneurs Development Conference was held in Changsha, where more than 400 political and business representatives, entrepreneurs, experts and scholars from China and Africa gathered to discuss economic and trade cooperation. At the conference, the magazine China-Africa Economic and Trade was launched globally with its official website. The China-Africa Health Cooperation Promotion Committee was officially inaugurated and the relevant research institute centers were awarded plaques as Africa-oriented Economic and Trade Cooperation Promotion Liaison Stations. These achievements help advance the refinement and localization of Hunan’s Africa-related cooperation services.

3月2日，首届中国-非洲企业家发展大会在长沙举办，逾400名中非政商界代表、企业家及专家学者齐聚现场共商经贸合作。大会现场，《中非经贸》杂志完成全球首发且官网同步上线，中非医卫健康合作促进委员会正式揭牌，研究会相关中心被授予对非经贸合作促进联络点牌匾，推动湖南对非合作服务向精细化、地方化发展。

A number of innovative and sustainable "small yet sophisticated" cooperation projects were showcased at the project promotion session of the conference. Among them, the Mom's Mushroom House focuses on the development of Kenyan women, and the United Kaffa Alliance(UKA) Coffee Industrial Internet Platform breaks the trade bottleneck of insufficient foreign exchange in some African countries. Nigeria also promoted the Kogi-Hunan Free Trade Zone project with supporting preferential policies, and several other projects provided diversified solutions for the industrial complementarity between Hunan and Africa. It is reported that the Hunan-Guangdong-Africa rail-sea intermodal corridor has covered more than 80 countries and 170 ports worldwide, with comprehensive logistics costs nearly 20% lower than those of traditional corridors, building an efficient and convenient logistics channel for China-Africa trade. The successful holding of this conference will further boost the two-way development of "Hunan products going global" and "African goods entering Hunan", achieving mutual benefit and win-win results.

大会的项目推介环节集中亮相了多个创新且可持续的“小而美”合作项目，其中“母亲的蘑菇房”聚焦肯尼亚妇女发展、众咖联咖啡产业互联网平台破解非洲外汇贸易瓶颈，尼日利亚还推介了配套优惠政策的科吉-湖南自贸区项目，还有多个项目为湘非产业互补提供多元方案。据悉，湘粤非铁海联运通道已实现全球80余个国家、170个港口的覆盖，物流成本较传统通道降低近20%，为湘非贸易搭建了高效物流通道，而本次大会的举办将进一步推动“湘品出海”与“非货入湘”双向发展、实现互利共赢。
