国内英语资讯:2019 China-California Business Forum to be held in Los Angeles in June

LOS ANGELES, April 26 -- The 2019 China-California Business Forum will be held in June in Los Angeles in the U.S. state of California.

The forum will be held to promote California's trade and investment cooperation with Chinese provinces, and encourage business leaders from California and China to explore and develop business opportunities.

A delegation of about 150 senior Chinese business leaders from nine provincial regions is expected to join the forum to be held on June 5 in downtown Los Angeles, according to a statement released by the Chinese Consulate General in Los Angles on Friday.

Among them, a group from Guangdong Province, the Guest Province of Honor of this year's forum, will highlight business opportunities in the newly established Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area.

The forum is jointly organized by the California Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development, Los Angeles Regional Export Council, China Chamber of Commerce for Import and Export of Machinery and Electronic Products and the Chinese Consulate General in Los Angeles, in partnership with Milken Institute, Bay Area Council, China General Chamber of Commerce Los Angeles, Los Angeles Area Chamber of Commerce, and Department of Commerce of Guangdong Province.

Former California Governor Jerry Brown had participated in all three previous events since 2016, which attracted more than 1,200 business executives.

"Sub-national cooperation is the foundation of China-U.S. economic and trade relations. The China-California Business Forum plays an important role in promoting this cooperation," said Zhang Ping, Chinese Consul General in Los Angeles.
