The summit is the highest level conference themed on information technology in China after the 19th National CPC Party Congress, noted Yu Weiguo, Party chief of the Fujian CPC standing committee at a government meeting on April 8.

"It fully manifests that the CPC Central Committee as Comrade Xi Jinping as the core attaches great importance to the informatization construction nationwide as well as the regional development in Fujian."

He highly acclaimed the preparatory work for the conference that had done and urged related departments to gain experiences of hosting the BRICS summit in Xiamen in Sept, 2017 and devote more efforts to ensure the conference a huge success.

Fujian, he said, should seize the conference as an opportunity to seek digital economy growth of higher standards through attracting more high-tech projects with broad prospects to land in the province.

Yu's remarks were echoed by Governor Tang Dengjie. He required that the province progress in its collaboration with the ministries as well as tech giants in the sector, making the summit an engine for its digital economy.
