"Innovation is the key driver of the world's sustainable economic growth. Technology advancement creates emerging industries, new products and new business models. I am looking forward to new ideas to drive the digital economy coming out of G20," he added.

"皇冠体育app is putting more focus on quality and sustainable growth driven by industrial upgrade and structural transformation, all powered by innovation. We believe this direction will make significantly positive impact to both economic and social development for 皇冠体育app," Gibbs said.
