Expert Analysis on the 3rd Plenum of the Central Committee

Dear VDMA member,

We are pleased to invite you to an exclusive online event on August 14, where we will provide an expert analysis of the 3rd Plenum of the Central Committee.

The 3rd Plenum, known for addressing structural aspects of economic development of the country, can have substantial implications for our industry. But is it the case this time?

Foreign observers reacted with disappointment to the announcement released by the Communist Party after the four-day Plenum. While it did promise further reforms and the opening of the country, the announcement largely corresponded to statements made in the past—old wine in new bottles.

On the Chinese side, however, there was enthusiasm: "The Third Plenum boosts confidence, injects certainty into the world," titled the Global Times. The China Daily called it a milestone, "Plenum marks milestone in further reform."

So what exactly was discussed, and will it have a significant impact on our industry? During the online event, we will address these very questions. This analysis will help you understand the strategic directions and policy shifts that are likely to influence business operations and economic conditions in the coming years.
