A total of 515 inventions from 21 countries participate in the exhibition, including China. The inventions of Chinese delegation cover the areas of port machinery, transportation planning, light industry and electronics, metallurgy and chemical industry and ceramic industry. Many of the inventions possess Chinese patents and some also possess U.S. patents. Chinese famous inventor Bao Qifan and his team win three gold medals in the exhibition.
Through exchanges with inventors in other countries, Chinese inventors can expand their visions, enhance their friendship with inventors in other countries and develop their new ideas for the future inventions. They note that they will work harder to utilize and promote their inventions in practice so that their inventions can exert larger social and economic profits. Meanwhile, they hope to learn from the foreign investors’ advantages and resolve specific problems to further improve the quality and levels of their inventions.
