At the opening ceremony, Gao Yuyue referred to the potential of CE China for the region: “Guangzhou is a very important manufacturing base and has one of the most advanced supply chains in this industry. CE China will inject additional dynamic to the electronic industry here in Guangzhou and support the economic and social progress.”

Representing a long-term strategic partner of CE China, IDG-representative Orient Zhu said: “IDG has been deeply rooted in China for more than 30 years. It is hoped that with years of accumulation, IDG can help CE China better localize, enter and integrate into the Chinese market. Driven by this initial intention, we organized CE summit. We sincerely hope that during the conference, we can share the background of the times, new ideas, new concepts, new technologies and new products, comprehensively interpret and forecast the development trend of the industry, and promote the cooperation and exchange of the global consumer electronics industry.” For the CE Summit, IDG has invited many top consumer electronics manufacturers, scientific research institutions, investment institutions, entrepreneurs and media.
