WELCOME MESSAGE

Dear colleagues and friends,

2024 China Downstream Technology and Markets International Conference will be held during June 18-20, 2024.

The world is facing changes unseen in a century, with historical trends of global multi-polarization and economic globalization continuing to shape our world. It is widely agreed upon by the international community that genuine multilateralism and coordinated regional development are key to progress. As a major player in the global petroleum and chemical industry, China is committed to participating in global innovation cooperation and working alongside our international partners to create an open, fair, and equitable environment for industrial development and trade. Our goal is to share the benefits of innovation and development with all countries around the world while ensuring the stability and security of the global petrochemical industry supply chain. This conference is a concrete step towards implementing the strategic plan of the Party Central Committee to expand high-level opening to the world, practice the new development concept, prioritize high-quality development, promote high-quality opening, and ultimately build a strong petrochemical country.

The theme of this year's conference is "Innovation, High-end Transformation, and Green Development", which focuses on technological innovation to promote the high-quality and green development of the industry, focusing on the direction of technological innovation in refining and chemical industry, technological development and industrial innovation in the fields of plastic recycling economy, hydrogen energy, biofuels and chemicals, as well as carbon dioxide capture, storage, and utilization.

This conference is jointly organized by China Petroleum and Chemical Industry Federation and Yantai Municipal People's Government. Yantai, as an important agglomeration for the accelerated development of China's refining and chemical industry, is significantly improving the development quality, efficiency and overall competitiveness of the chemical industry. Stakeholders are invited to explore opportunities for cooperation with Yantai's rising refining and chemical industry.

We hope that this conference will provide a communication platform for global refining and petrochemical producers, suppliers of technology, services and equipment, and stakeholders of the whole industrial chain to share information on the latest cutting-edge technologies, quality products, and services in the refining and chemical industry. By discussing trends in industrial transformation and upgrading, as well as future development directions, we hope to share opportunities, create a common future, and promote innovative, high-end and green development in the global refining and chemical industry.

We would like to express our sincere gratitude to the supporters, partners, expert advisory group, speakers and participants of this conference. We hope that you will find the conference informative and engaging and that it will be a worthwhile trip for you!
