Walmart, Newegg, and eBay will highlight new opportunities in North America's new retail e-commerce, high-tech product categories, and electronics and automotive parts, respectively.

Mercado Libre, Noon, and Coupang, leading players in the e-commerce markets in Latin America, the Middle East, and South Korea, will delve into local consumer trends, share firsthand policy information, and provide operation insights.

European platforms PIGU, eMAG, and Cdiscount will discuss their local market shares, presenting valuable opportunities to explore new cross-border e-commerce pathways.

Major platforms like Amazon will discuss new sites in the Middle East and Australia, TikTok will introduce new e-commerce content marketing strategies, and the European exhibition platform VirtualExpo will demonstrate how it can help Chinese manufacturers expand overseas through online exhibitions.

Hubei province has developed export potential in strong industrial clusters such as automotive parts, medical devices, household cleaning products, and children's toys. Since Wuhan was approved as a cross-border e-commerce pilot zone in 2018, the scale of imports and exports has increased by about 20-fold.
