The 2nd CISCE, which focuses on developing new quality productive forces, has added an Advanced Manufacturing Chain exhibition area to showcase the complete industrial chain in this field, from front-end R&D and design, the application of new materials, key components and processing, intelligent manufacturing, to high-end equipment, underscoring advanced manufacturing's critical role in upgrading industries and boosting international competitiveness. To promote practical cooperation in the advanced manufacturing industrial and supply chain, it is proposed to improve technological innovation capabilities, accelerate digital empowerment development, and promote green transformation and upgrading.

During the event, advanced manufacturing chain enterprises collaboratively released the "Co-creating a New Era of Green and Low-Carbon Industry - Joint Initiative of Advanced Manufacturing Chain Exhibitors at the 2nd China International Supply Chain Expo". The initiative calls on all advanced manufacturing enterprises to establish a green and low-carbon development concept, strengthen green and low-carbon technological innovation, promote industrial structure transformation and upgrading, promote the optimization of energy consumption structure, build a green manufacturing supply system, promote resource recycling transformation, empower the digital transformation of production methods, and strengthen international green exchanges and cooperation. Its goal is to effectively promote the manufacturing industry toward a greener, more low-carbon, and more sustainable future, and to write a new chapter in the manufacturing industry's green and low-carbon development together.
