Noting the world is facing various challenges including the COVID-19 pandemic, Xi said science and technology should benefit all humanity. China is willing to intensify cooperation with the international community on technological innovation to make contributions to global economic recovery and safeguarding people's health.

He urged participants to pool their wisdom, enhance consensus and promote cooperation in order to make science and technology deliver more benefits to people from all countries.

The conference, themed "Innovation Empowers Sustainable Development", was jointly organized by the Boao Forum for Asia and the Macao SAR Government.
