新华网上海8月12日电
8月3日至5日,第二十届沙利文全球增长、科创与领导力峰会暨第五届新投资大会在上海举办。本届峰会恰逢沙利文全球成立65周年、沙利文峰会落地中国20周年双庆典节点,以“锚定创新爆发期,共塑转型增长新未来”为核心主题,汇聚300余位海内外嘉宾,落地150余场主题演讲与圆桌对话,全方位呈现全球产业转型增长的中国路径与亚太方案。
From August 3 to 5, the 20th Frost & Sullivan Global Growth, Innovation and Leadership Summit and the 5th New Investment Event were held in Shanghai. This year's summit coincided with the dual anniversary milestones of Frost & Sullivan's 65th global anniversary and the 20th anniversary of the summit's presence in China. Under the core theme "Anchoring the Innovation Explosion, Shaping New Future of Transformational Growth", the event brought together over 300 domestic and international guests and featured more than 150 keynote speeches and round table dialogues, presenting a comprehensive picture of China's pathways and Asia-Pacific solutions for global industrial transformation and growth.
峰会期间,沙利文全球董事局主席兼首席执行官富大为(David Frigstad)在接受新华网专访时表示,自1976年首次到访中国以来,他亲历了中国从制造业起步,到成长为世界级物流强国,再到创新渗透整个经济体的全过程。“中国的转型是人类历史上前所未见的,转型速度更是史无前例。”在他看来,这一切才刚刚开始——随着制造、供应链、物流与创新能力全面就位,中国正迎来前所未有的发展机遇。
During the summit, David Frigstad, Global Chairman and CEO, Frost & Sullivan, gave an exclusive interview to Xinhua Net. He shared that since his first visit to China in 1976, he has witnessed the country's entire journey—from its early manufacturing base, to its rise as a world-class logistics powerhouse, and to the permeation of innovation throughout the entire economy. "China's transformation is unprecedented in human history, and the speed of that transformation is also unprecedented." In his view, this is only the beginning—with manufacturing, supply chains, logistics, and innovation capabilities now fully in place, China is facing unprecedented development opportunities.
谈及中国产业创新对全球的借鉴意义,富大为认为,其底层逻辑归根结底在于价值观:中国家庭世代传承的勤奋、尊师重教、回馈社会等核心价值,构成了产业创新持续迸发的根基,也是其他经济体最值得参考的增长范式。
When asked about the global implications of China's industrial innovation, David Frigstad believes that the underlying logic ultimately comes down to values: the core values passed down through Chinese families—diligence, respect for teachers and education, and giving back to society—form the foundation for sustained industrial innovation, and also represent the growth model most worthy of reference for other economies.
对于中国企业全球化,富大为指出,最紧迫的挑战与最大的机遇同出一源——讲好品牌故事。“中国企业在制造、供应链、文化底蕴上均已达到世界级水平,什么都有了,只差品牌。”他坦言,不少企业习惯于罗列财务数据与产品参数,而真正打动人心的品牌叙事,才是感染用户、赢得投资者、连接全球受众的关键,也是中国企业从“中国参与者”迈向“全球参与者”的必修课。
Regarding the globalization of Chinese enterprises, David Frigstad pointed out that the most pressing challenge and the greatest opportunity stem from the same source—telling a compelling brand story. "Chinese companies are already world-class in manufacturing, supply chains, and cultural heritage—they have everything except a brand." He candidly noted that many companies are accustomed to listing financial data and product specifications, but what truly moves users, wins over investors, and connects with global audiences is authentic brand storytelling—which is also an essential lesson for Chinese enterprises as they transition from "Chinese participants" to "global players."
谈及人工智能浪潮,富大为介绍,沙利文近年提出“AI+HI”理念,即推动人工智能与人类智能深度融合。AI将承担大量程式化工作,人的创造力、判断力与情感连接价值将愈发凸显;与此同时,信息爆炸也让独立、公正的第三方研究视角价值倍增,成为产业决策的重要参照。
Speaking of the AI wave, David Frigstad introduced Frost & Sullivan's recent "AI+HI" concept, which advocates the deep integration of artificial intelligence and human intelligence. AI will take on a large share of routine work, while human creativity, judgment, and emotional connection will become increasingly valuable. At the same time, the explosion of information greatly amplifies the value of independent, impartial third-party research perspectives, making them a critical reference for industrial decision-making.
面向未来,富大为表示,沙利文将继续聚焦识别颠覆性增长机遇,帮助全行业为智能革命带来的全领域变革做好准备,并与中国企业在行业转型、客户价值主张与客户体验升级上深度合作,助力中国产业的优质价值更有效地传递给世界。“企业越强大、协作越深入,世界就越趋向共赢。”他相信,以企业间的互信与合作推动产业共赢,全球经济将共同朝着正向方向发展。
Looking ahead, David Frigstad stated that Frost & Sullivan will continue to focus on identifying disruptive growth opportunities, helping all industries prepare for the sweeping changes brought by the intelligent revolution, and working closely with Chinese companies on industry transformation, customer value propositions, and customer experience upgrades—so that the high-quality value of China's industries can be more effectively delivered to the world. "The stronger the companies and the deeper the collaboration, the more the world moves toward win-win outcomes." He believes that by fostering mutual trust and cooperation among enterprises to drive shared prosperity, the global economy will collectively move in a positive direction.
