Summer Davos 2026: Can innovation drive global growth?

Leaders from more than 90 countries and regions have gathered in Dalian, northeast of China, for the 17th Annual Meeting of the New Champions, also known as the Summer Davos Forum. Against a backdrop of global economic uncertainty and transformation, how can innovation become a driving force for economic growth, competitiveness and sustainable development? As the world searches for new engines of development, what role can China play in fostering innovation, openness and international cooperation? And how can growth create opportunities for future generations while supporting a greener and more resilient economy?

Guests in this edition of Dialogue are Cornelia Meyer, macroeconomist and founder and CEO of Meyer Resources; David Mahon, executive chairman of Mahon China Investment; and John Ross, senior fellow at the Chongyang Institute for Financial Studies at Renmin University of China.
