I'm most impressed by the reference to the 'BRICS Plus' by President Xi Jinping. It represents a new model of integration to turn the BRICS mechanism into a broader and more inclusive platform, through which more emerging economies can have dialogue and deepen cooperation.

President Xi also talked about the importance of digitalization in pushing ahead with globalization. Businesses should ride the boom of the internet economy and leverage new technologies to bolster growth and spur vitality.
