Centred on the theme of “National Development and Financial Innovation,” the forum brought together more than 300 distinguished guests from financial regulation, academic research, market practice and the Peking University alumni community. They explored cutting-edge issues in national development and financial innovation and analyzed the pivotal role that financial innovation plays in serving the real economy and driving industrial upgrading. During thematic sharing and panel sessions, participants examined practical pathways and challenges in areas such as fin-tech, green finance, inclusive finance, pension finance and digital finance. 

 

Tu Guangshao, former Executive Vice-Mayor of Shanghai and Chairman of the Shanghai New Finance Institute, delivered a vivid presentation on Shanghai’s journey toward becoming an international financial centre. He offered insightful interpretations of its positioning, distinctive features and key areas for further reform and greater openness within the context of global financial-centre development. 

 

Huang Yiping, Dean of Peking University’s National School of Development, spoke on “National Development and Financial Innovation.” Drawing on real-world economic examples, he analyzed the direction of financial-system reform and innovation. From the perspective of unlocking consumption potential and meeting people’s aspirations for a better life, he proposed recommendations for using financial innovation to stimulate the micro-economy and promote industrial upgrading. 

 

Luo Fei, Founding Partner, Chairman and General Manager of Green Pine Capital Partners (GPCP), addressed “The Rise of the Patent Economy and Financing Challenges,” sharing insights into the commercialization and financing of intellectual property within biopharmaceutical technology enterprises. 

 

Huang Zhuo, Vice Dean of Peking University’s National School of Development and Dean of the BiMBA Business School, gave a talk on “Finance and Artificial Intelligence,” discussing the challenges and potential applications of AI technology in financial contexts such as risk management and asset allocation. 

 

Subsequent round-table discussions focused on “Fixed Income and Exchange Rates” and “Financial Innovation and Investment.” Seasoned investment professionals engaged in meaningful dialogue about fixed-income allocation strategies in the current macro-economic cycle, the impact of exchange-rate volatility on cross-border investment, the potential of financial innovation to support the real economy, and the rationale for investing in hard-tech and consumer sectors. Drawing on practical market case studies, they provided valuable industry insights that combined policy understanding with operational knowledge.
