During the event, a 216-sq m- pavilion was also unveiled to display the province's achievements in foreign trade, foreign investment, and foreign capital utilization over the past decade.

Since its inception in 2018, the CIIE has become a strong buttress for Gansu's foreign trade, and an important window for foreign exchanges. Data show that the province's total import contract value of the first four CIIEs reached 10.61 billion US dollars.
