The Global Trade in Services Summit and a series of forums on the development of trade in services will also be held concurrently.

Up to now, nearly 70 countries and regions and international organizations, including the United Kingdom, Denmark, Brazil, and Australia, as well as the World Trade Centers Association, and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, have confirmed their participation with exhibitions and events. In China, 31 provincial-level divisions (provinces, autonomous regions, and municipalities directly under the Central Government), five cities specifically designated in the state plan, the Xinjiang Production and Construction Corps, Hong Kong SAR, Macao SAR, and the Taiwan region will once again have their exhibition booths.

More than 740 enterprises and institutions, among which there are more than 300 Fortune Global 500 companies and industry-leading enterprises, have indicated their interest in participating in person across nine specialized exhibitions.

Meanwhile, the Transportation and Business Services Exhibition will host a series of "Promotion Roadshows for Overseas Expansion Services" for the first time, with nearly 40 sessions signed up so far. This exhibition area will also introduce the "Exhibition Zone for Enterprises Dedicated to Overseas Expansion Services " for the first time, bringing together more than 30 such enterprises covering finance, law, accounting, advertising and human resources, to provide one‑stop services for enterprises going global.

A host of major achievements will be unveiled during the fair. More than 80 enterprises and institutions, including Alibaba, Schneider Electric, GE HealthCare and MSD, plan to release over 180 innovative outcomes covering artificial intelligence, healthcare, cultural exports, green and low‑carbon development, and more. More than 10 ranking‑related releases have also been prepared.

In addition, more than 190 forums, meetings, negotiations and promotional sessions will be arranged by relevant countries, international organizations, China's provincial-level regions, and different exhibition areas. A total of 16 thematic forums have been scheduled, including the Forum on the Development of Trade in Services, the Forum on Trends and Latest Developments of Digital Trade, the 2026 Global Entrepreneurs Summit on Trade in Services, the World Conference on Tourism Cooperation and Development 2026, and the 2026 Beijing Capital International Medical Conference.
