"Foster new quality productivity and develop new drivers of economic growth." The "Global Unicorn Enterprise Conference" of the 2024 Zhongguancun Forum Annual Meeting was successfully held in the Conference Center of Zhongguancun National Independent Innovation Demonstration Zone on the afternoon of April 28. At the conference, many leaders delivered speeches, six experts and entrepreneur representatives delivered keynote speeches, and nearly 100 representatives of unicorn enterprises and investment institutions attended. The conference released the "China Unicorn Enterprise Development Report (2024)" for the first time, and specially invited a number of unicorn entrepreneurs at home and abroad for a summit dialogue on "The future and opportunities of unicorn enterprises".
The relationship between China and European unicorn Carbios company CEOEmmanuelLadent (Long Qi) not only started from his four years of working experience here, but also the "green" vision that the Chinese market now coincides with his. This time, Mr. Long Qi brought Carbios to the Global Unicorn Enterprise Conference, and answered the questions of reporters. During the conversation, he expressed his praise for the rapid development of China's innovation and technology and his expectation for entering the Chinese market deeply in the future.
Carbios is a French listed company dedicated to the development and industrialization of bioenzyme solutions for recycling. In the words of Mr. Long Qi, "Whether it is the packaging or the textile itself, we can degrade it to the basic components of the plastic based on the bioenzyme. This technology can not only significantly increase the amount of plastics and textiles that can be recycled, but it is also very green."
As a representative of European unicorn companies, Mr. Long Qi believes that there will be more unicorns from China in the future. Because of his experience in China, he is impressed by the rapid adoption and development of technological innovation by Chinese companies. He added that there is a huge demand for plastics and textiles both in China and overseas, and that green protection is very important for China and the world. That is why he is so confident about Carbios's development prospects in China.
Regarding the impact of China's policy environment on the development of unicorn enterprises in the future, Mr. Long Qi said that he saw that the Chinese government pays great attention to the development of unicorn enterprises, supports and promotes enterprise innovation, and builds an ecosystem conducive to innovation. In the future development of unicorns, he put forward that "scientific and technological competitiveness is the key to developing enterprises, but it is not the only one. In the face of the rapid development of the world, while enterprises have scientific and technological competitiveness, they should also consider bringing more "green" value to customers, a guarantee of less consumption, so as to reduce consumption and save costs for customers, and help these companies get greater space for development in the future.
Finally, talking about the feeling of coming to China this time, he was deeply touched: "China has always applied new technology so fast. I am looking forward to discovering more amazing scientific and technological innovations in China."
