At the promotion event, Ms. Shen Yonghan, representative of the Chilean Construction Industry Association and chairman of the Chilean Hongzhan Group, and the conference association jointly released the "Initiative on Establishing an International Construction Alliance", which aims to build an international platform for global engineering machinery technology exchange and cooperation, as well as industry information dissemination. The initiative points out that with the rapid development of global construction technology and equipment, the industry's demand for cross regional technology and information exchange is becoming increasingly urgent. However, barriers such as time, language, and cost have long constrained the development of the industry. The establishment of cross-border alliances is a good way to solve this pain point.

Ms. Shen Yonghan, representative of the Chilean Construction Industry Association and chairman of Chile Hongzhan Group, made a speech

The initiative proposes that the alliance will build a global information sharing network through five core measures: firstly, organizing regular exchanges among alliance members during major international exhibitions to deepen industry linkage; Secondly, establish a global public information platform to showcase member dynamics and industry information in a centralized manner; Thirdly, establish a "global industry news pool" to encourage members to share important local news and resources; Fourth, support cross-border business agency among members and expand the space for media commercialization cooperation; The fifth is to establish a secretariat in the CICEE organizing committee and regional centers in various continents and regions to ensure the stable operation of the alliance.

Zhou Xianbiao, Secretary General of the Chinese Society of Engineering Machinery, explained that the purpose of establishing the construction alliance is to unite and cooperate, share resources, empower each other, and promote coordinated development. The alliance will break through the global industry information bottleneck, allowing practitioners to timely obtain cutting-edge technology, market dynamics, and exhibition information, and promote deep collaboration among industry media in content creation, resource integration, commercial operation, and other aspects. CICEE 2027 will serve as the core platform of the alliance, providing comprehensive support for alliance activities. We look forward to more industry institutions and media from around the world joining us to jointly build an efficient, open, and win-win global engineering machinery technology and information exchange platform, injecting momentum into the high-quality development of the industry. ”
