Tian Xiaohong, spokesperson of the GBI 100 Competition, pointed out that CBT 100 companies, which can be regarded as the driving forces of the Chinese economy, are the most profitable companies in China. The annual profits generated by CBT 100 companies have accounted for approximately 95 percent of the total profits of all Chinese listed companies in recent years. Meanwhile, CBT 100 cities were ranked as the 100 Chinese cities with the largest GDP by the Warton Economic Institute based on the CBT 100 Index. Statistically, the aggregate GDP of CBT 100 cities has recently accounted for approximately 75 percent of China's national GDP, which makes CBT 100 cities major bases for the economic development in China. CBT100 cities provide fertile soil for the industrialization of cutting-edge science and technology achievements around the world.

The competition is sponsored by the CBT 100 Forum, Xishan district of Wuxi, and Xinjiang Zhongtai Group, and co-organized by Chinese Universities (East China /South China) Science and Technology Achievement Transformation Centers and the Association for Collaborative Leadership (ACL).
