At the centre of this is Beijing’s “Two Zones” framework—combining the service sector opening initiative and the China (Beijing) Pilot Free Trade Zone—together with its network of comprehensive bonded zones, which collectively support market access, cross-border operations, and cost-efficient trade structures.

The programme will focus on the practical application of these frameworks, including:

• Expanded access in key service sectors and support for new business models  
• More efficient and compliant cross-border data flows  
• Improved operating conditions for international teams, including streamlined financial and payment solutions  

Through direct briefings from both municipal and district commerce authorities, attendees will gain a clear understanding of how these policies translate into real commercial advantage, and how to engage with the stakeholders responsible for implementation.

A targeted networking session will enable participants to connect directly with decision-makers and explore partnership opportunities, pilot projects, and tailored entry pathways.

Why this matters

The Beijing Municipal Bureau of Commerce sets the city’s strategic direction, priority sectors, and incentive frameworks, while district-level commerce bureaus are responsible for execution, including local partner identification, site selection, business setup, and ongoing facilitation. Engaging both levels simultaneously can accelerate decision-making, reduce execution risk, and unlock tailored support mechanisms not accessible through standard commercial channels.
