THE China-UK relationship in the golden era will receive a shot in the arm as the China International Import Expo (CIIE) provides a unique opportunity to further strengthen British cooperation with China.

Richard Burn, the British trade commissioner for China, told Xinhua in an interview that as Country of Honor, Britain will send a high-level delegation to attend the weeklong event, which will see the presence of Prince Andrew, Britain’s International Trade Secretary Liam Fox and other officials and business leaders.

Britain opens a national pavilion that focuses on innovation and features world-leading companies in healthcare and life sciences, financial and professional services, education, creative industries, automotive, AI, big data, among others.

A total of 30 British companies from different sectors, including finance, retail, healthcare, culture, education and high-end manufacturing, are taking part in the business exhibition. (Xinhua)
