On December 12, the 2024 Beijing International Commercial Law Day was held around the theme, "Fostering Mutual Development Through Communication and Cooperation, and Advancing Development Through Law-Business Integration". The event was jointly sponsored by CCPIT Beijing, the Secretariat of the International Commercial Dispute Prevention and Settlement Organization (ICDPASO), and the Beijing Chamber of International Commerce (BCIC), and supported by the Beijing Municipal Bureau of Justice and the CCPIT Commercial Legal Service Center. Over 200 individuals attended, including leaders from government agencies and judicial bodies, representatives of international organizations, renowned experts and scholars, and delegates from legal service agencies and businesses at home and abroad.
The plenary session in the morning was chaired by Zhu Jialiang, Vice Chairman of CCPIT Beijing and Vice President & Secretary General of BCIC. During the session, speeches were delivered by Li Xiangying, Chairperson of CCPIT Beijing; Shen Peilan, Secretary General of ICDPASO; and Huang Jin, President of the Chinese Society of International Law and Chairman of the Beijing International Dispute Resolution Center. Nine legal professionals from international organizations, municipal entities, and relevant agencies gave keynote addresses on international commercial law cooperation, Beijing's business environment and foreign trade and investment policies, and legal services conducive to business development. Later in the afternoon, two roundtables were held on trending legal issues, including commercial mediation and corporate compliance.
The event also included the unveiling ceremony for the CCPIT Beijing Conciliation Center and the launch ceremony for the BCIC International Commercial Law Committee. These ceremonies highlighted the role of "trade promotion and mediation" as well as the innovative commercial legal services of CCPIT Beijing. Additionally, the event established a platform for exchanges and negotiations between well-known foreign-oriented law firms, legal service providers, and domestic and international businesses in Beijing, promoting practical cooperation and high-quality integration of the city's legal and business circles.
Moving forward, CCPIT Beijing will further implement the important directives of President Xi Jinping on strengthening foreign-oriented legal work. It will leverage its unique advantages as a trade promotion institution to serve as a bridge linking Chinese and foreign businesses and legal service providers. It also seeks to develop the Beijing International Commercial Law Day into an influential trademark event that aligns with the latest international legal trends, Beijing's trade and investment dynamics, and the commercial legal services of trade promotion institutions. By building a cross-border commercial legal exchange platform, CCPIT Beijing aims to foster international economic and trade cooperation, provide pragmatic services to businesses at home and abroad, and support the high-standard opening-up and high-quality development of the capital city.
