The China International Fair for Trade in Services (CIFTIS), the first major international economic and trade event held both online and offline by China since the COVID-19 outbreak, closed on September 9.

The fair highlighted new forms and models of business such as digital trade, 5G communications, industrial internet, smart office and blockchain innovation, said Xian Guoyi, an official with the Ministry of Commerce.

Provincial regions, central enterprises and financial enterprises formed trading groups and signed 240 agreements during the event, Xian said.

The ministry will introduce negative lists for cross-border trade in services this year to promote the institutional opening-up in the services sector, Xian added.

The fair's official website received 7.2 million views, and the official app received 8.05 million views, said Yan Ligang, head of the Beijing Municipal Commerce Bureau.

According to Yan, a total of 5,372 enterprises from home and abroad set up online exhibition booths, including 2,037 three-dimensional booths.

An online platform will continue to be open to enterprises for a certain period for online registration, online exhibition booth building, negotiations and contract signing, Yan said.

The CIFTIS, themed "Global Services, Shared Prosperity," opened on September 4. The six-day event included the Global Trade in Services Summit, four summit forums, and more than 100 other industry seminars and forums.
