The awards will be held today at the inaugural FORTUNE
Brainstorm TECH International (BSTI), a new conference convening
leaders in the global innovation economy space in Guangzhou
December 5-6, 2017.
For the past year, FORTUNE has gathered nominations from leading
venture capitalists, industry experts, and other sources. Now, the
editors have narrowed the list to 15 companies, whose
representatives will present their ideas on stage at FORTUNE
Brainstorm TECH International. One winner will be selected from
each of five categories – e-commerce and fintech; healthcare tech;
mobility and green-tech; AI and robotics; and entertainment, media
and education. The winners will go on to present their innovations
at the FORTUNE Global Forum on December 7.
“There are increasing areas – like mobile payments, drone
development and others – where China has become not a follower, but
the global technological leader,” said Time Inc. Chief Content
Officer and FORTUNE President Alan Murray. “We believe it’s
important to recognize the innovative work going on in the tech
space here in China, and we hope this new award will help bring
international attention to these exciting developments.”
The launch of the China Innovation Awards coincides with the
first-ever FORTUNE Brainstorm TECH International conference. This
new event builds upon the success of Fortune’s U.S.-based
Brainstorm TECH conference, which for the past 16 summers has
brought together leaders in tech, media, entertainment and finance
in Aspen, Colorado.
Brainstorm TECH International will explore the innovation
revolution unfolding in China, including homegrown innovation and
mass implementation in fields including artificial intelligence,
social media, biotech, fintech, virtual reality, automotive, the
sharing economy, and mobile platforms.
Speakers will include Airbnb Cofounder Nate Blecharczyk,
CreditEase CEO Tang Ning, DJI President Roger Luo, Mobike
CEO Davis Wang, Mobvoi CEO Zhifei Li, and Payoneer
CEO Scott Galit.
The two-day event will bring together some of China’s most
promising start-up companies and emerging tech stars. The program
will feature innovators in China who are finding new pathways to
success as well as leaders from around the world, including Silicon
Valley, Israel, Europe and other parts of Asia.
Partner sponsors for Brainstorm TECH International include
presenting partner Guangzhou Automobile Group, who is presenting
the China Innovation Awards, Guangzhou Pharmaceutical Holdings,
Ltd., and Tencent/Atom Think Tank. The Brainstorm TECH
International knowledge partner is McKinsey & Company.
BSTI will be held in conjunction with the FORTUNE Global Forum,
a three-day event bringing together CEOs from the world’s biggest
companies – the FORTUNE Global 500 – with leaders from China in
both business and government. With the theme “Openness and
Innovation: Shaping the Global Economy,” this year’s event will be
the 15th FORTUNE Global Forum and the fifth one held in China.
