On November 2, 2026, the China–International Cultural and Tourism Exchange Conference was held in Chengdu, where 88 cultural and tourism investment projects were presented. The conference was a parallel session of the 2026 Global Panda Partners Conference. It aimed to build a bridge for dialogue between China and other countries in the cultural and tourism sectors, promote integrated development across multiple business formats, and deepen exchanges and practical cooperation in these sectors.

The investment projects were presented together, giving parties interested in cultural and tourism cooperation an opportunity to learn about the projects and connect with their organizers. The event also provided a platform for promoting Bashu’s cultural tourism globally.

For parties involved in the projects, the presentations were an opportunity to showcase projects and seek cooperation; they do not mean that cooperation has already been reached. The conference’s longer-term impact on cultural and tourism exchanges and project implementation remains to be seen and will depend on the progress of project discussions and the outcomes of any cooperation.
