In his address, Pakistani Ambassador to China, Khalil Hashmi, stated that IBI（Guolian Gufen)'s stable, healthy, and proactive development is a prime example of China and Pakistan politically implementing the "all-weather strategic cooperative partnership" proposed by the two countries' top leaders.

Its deep cultivation of China-Pakistan digital industry cooperation, its regular connection of government and enterprise resources, and its efforts to facilitate numerous enterprise connections and implementations have truly transformed the directives of the highest national leaders, the benefits of strategic agreements, and related diplomatic achievements into tangible results in real-world industrial cooperation.

Qian Xiaojun, founder and CEO of IBI（Guolian Gufen), stated, "China's mature industrial and supply chain advantages and digital operation capabilities are highly compatible with Pakistan's urgent needs for industrial upgrading and digital transformation."

The newly launched IBI Pakistan Digital Economy Headquarters will leverage its mature 6+N full-chain service system to provide enterprises from both countries with one-stop, end-to-end services including cross-border transactions, intelligent logistics, digital supply chain construction, cloud AI empowerment, joint venture project facilitation, and investment compliance guarantees.

Liu Zhai, Director and Senior Vice President of IBI（Guolian Gufen), systematically shared IBI（Guolian Gufen)'s investment and operational plans in Pakistan. She stated that in conjunction with this launch conference, IBI（Guolian Gufen), along with a delegation of Chinese enterprises, conducted intensive six-day meetings in Pakistan, visiting Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad to conduct industry matchmaking and project negotiations, signing over 110 cooperation agreements. These collaborations are rapidly translating into actual orders and implemented projects. In the future, IBI（Guolian Gufen) will use the IBI Pakistan Digital Economy Headquarters as its core platform to focus on key areas such as deep processing of agricultural products, establishing KD production lines for motorcycles, tricycles, and new energy vehicles, the medical and health industry, one-stop procurement of raw materials, and expanding the Chinese market for high-quality Pakistani finished products. It will comprehensively replicate China's "cloud factory" digital model, leveraging its global supply chain and cloud warehousing system to drive the cluster-style overseas expansion of high-quality Chinese SMEs, assist Pakistani SMEs in digital upgrading and export growth, create a benchmark for private enterprises deeply involved in the "Belt and Road" initiative, promote the deep integration of industrial needs between China and Pakistan, and allow the ironclad friendship between China and Pakistan to continue to shine with new brilliance in industrial win-win and digital empowerment.

To break down information barriers, geographical restrictions, and inefficient connections in cross-border trade, the organizers of this conference have intensively organized multiple high-level industry matchmaking events in Islamabad, Lahore, and Karachi, covering key areas of complementary advantages between China and Pakistan, such as chemicals, textiles, renewable energy, building materials, electronics, and automobiles. Through precise B2B matching, these events help companies from both countries accurately connect with their needs and explore cooperation potential. It is noteworthy that Qadir, General Manager of Cross-border E-commerce at IBI IBI（Guolian Gufen), has been deeply involved in China-Pakistan cooperation for many years. Having previously served as the Commercial Counselor at the Pakistani Embassy in China, and with his profound experience in diplomacy and trade, he has actively engaged in the forefront of China-Pakistan digital industry cooperation after his term ended. Qadir stated that, with the IBI Pakistan Digital Economy Headquarters as a platform, bilateral industrial cooperation will undoubtedly become a barometer of the political, economic, and trade relations between the two countries.
During this China-Pakistan Digital Journey event, IBI（Guolian Gufen) led representatives from over 50 Chinese companies to conduct in-depth cooperation matchmaking in the three major Pakistani cities of Lahore, Karachi, and Islamabad. The enthusiastic atmosphere of cooperation demonstrates the vigorous momentum of deep integration and synergistic development between China's high-quality production capacity and digital technology and Pakistan's local industries, injecting continuous digital momentum and industrial vitality into the all-weather strategic partnership between China and Pakistan in the new era.
