We got together in China, 13 years since the last SME Ministerial Meeting in Beijing, to discuss SME innovative development in the Asia-Pacific region.
The acceleration of economic recovery and strengthening of long-term growth and prosperity in China and the other 20 members of APEC, the world's largest economic region, hinges on the development of the small- and medium enterprise sector, which is at its core.
The role that small- and medium-sized enterprises play in Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation would be hard to overstate.
Nanjing will host the 21st APEC SME Ministerial Meeting in September. The Jiangsu and Nanjing governments have paid great attention to the meeting and regard it as another important multilateral foreign event following the Youth Olympic Games.
The China Development Bank has followed the Chinese government's call to help development in Africa with investment in and financing for SMEs, according to an official with the bank.
The Chinese government has, all along, attached great importance to the participation of SMEs in international exchanges and cooperation.
SMEs are an integral part of the APEC and play an important role in increasing job opportunities and boosting innovation and social stability.
