Tech, courier, recruiter keen on China

A1 China's comprehensive construction of a moderately prosperous society cannot do without the strong leadership of the Chinese government. With the adjustment of China's industrial structure and the development of changes in its external structure, Dassault Systemes, like many other foreign companies, chose to invest in China and become a participant in and contributor to China's economic development.

A2 Scientific and technological innovation is the core element of the current economic development. From the optimization and upgrading of infrastructure and more accurate medical solutions, to more rational use of environmental resources, these industries concerned about the quality of people's lives have the same demand for innovation and sustainable development in the process of development.

Dassault Systemes will play a forward-looking role in the industry and leverage innovation to promote sustainable development. In the three main sectors of our business－manufacturing, life sciences and healthcare, and infrastructure and cities－Dassault Systemes has accumulated rich digital experience and technical advantages.

A3 This year is a new critical moment for the world and China. The Chinese government's 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-25) has put scientific and technological innovation in the most important position.

The Government Work Report clearly pointed out that the 14th Five-Year Plan will continue to focus on the real economy, promote the advanced industrial base, modernize the industrial chain, maintain the basic stability of the manufacturing industry, transform and upgrade traditional industries and develop and grow strategies.

Starting from this year, sustainability has become the core development strategy of Dassault Systemes. This perfectly aligns with the objectives of the Chinese government regarding carbon-neutral economy and digital transformation so as to achieve high-quality manufacturing development.

A4 To achieve the goal of high-quality economic development, it is essential to improve R&D capabilities and the penetration of high-end digital software.

As China accelerates the development of "new infrastructure" and industrial digitization, Dassault Systemes has made internal adjustments for the Chinese market to promote the development of a sustainable high-tech economy.

Local governments in China are constantly optimizing their business environments, and Dassault Systemes has continued to cooperate with local governments and customers that are leading in some industries on the digital transformation of enterprises and intelligent manufacturing, to jointly create innovation centers. At present, innovation centers have been established in Chongqing, Qingdao, Wuhan and other cities.

A5 China is a very important manufacturing base and consumer market. An increasingly open Chinese market is a world market, a shared market and everyone's market. It has built a broad platform to promote mutual benefit and win-win results for all parties.

We feel that the business environment is continuously being optimized and improved. With the foreign investment policies launched, foreign-invested enterprises can participate in market competition on an equal footing.
