AI-enabled Economic and Trade Cooperation Tightening the Ties of Trade and Investment CooperationThe 23rd China-ASEAN Business and Investment Summit Held Successfully

NANNING, CHINA – Media OutReach Newswire – 18 September 2026 – The 23rd China-ASEAN Business and Investment Summit (CABIS) was held in Nanning City, Guangxi, China from September 17 to 19, 2026, striving to build a high-level platform for exchanges on AI application cooperation and industrial innovation between China and ASEAN.



Co-hosted by the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade (CCPIT), the People's Government of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region and the national chambers of commerce and industry of ASEAN member states, CABIS is the highest-level, largest-scale and most influential national and international economic and trade event between China and ASEAN. Since its inception in 2004, the CABIS has been held annually, playing a strong role in advancing economic, trade and investment cooperation between China and ASEAN. The 23rd CABIS held major events including the Opening Ceremony, the China-ASEAN Business Leaders Forum and the China-ASEAN Commercial Law Forum, providing cooperation platforms for government-business and business-to-business dialogues, policy alignment and project matchmaking.

2026 marks a crucial year for the implementation of Version 3.0 of China-ASEAN Free Trade Area. Taking Timor-Leste's accession to ASEAN as an opportunity to expand the scope of business cooperation, the CABIS focused on digital trade, green economy and supply chain resilience, actively responding to the industrial expectations of ASEAN. Together with the business communities of all 11 ASEAN member states, it worked to translate policy consensus into tangible outcomes in industry and commerce, injecting new momentum into regional economic integration.

The 23rd CABIS further integrated "AI + CABIS " by hosting a series of AI-themed side events and releasing Intelligent Land-Sea Connectivity: China-ASEAN AI Cooperation Case Collection (2026) ，promoting the application of AI across ASEAN. It highlights the dominant role of enterprises, facilitating the "Nanning Channel" by holding the Matchmaking Conference for Entrepreneurs from China and ASEAN Countries, supporting the construction of the Pinglu Canal Economic Belt.
