On March 26, 2026, the Shandong Development and Reform Commission published an interpretive article noting that, as the 15th Five-Year Plan gets underway, the National Development and Reform Commission has launched 13 landmark major foreign-funded projects with a total investment of 13.4 billion US dollars. These projects span sectors such as advanced manufacturing, biopharmaceuticals, and modern logistics, demonstrating China's firm resolve to pursue high-standard opening-up. Amid current adjustments in the global investment landscape and intensifying competition for investment, China's continued efforts to facilitate the implementation of major foreign-funded projects represent a strategic move to uphold the national policy of opening up and stabilize global investment confidence. It also serves as a "vote of confidence" cast by multinational corporations in the Chinese market.

From regions across China to Shandong, major foreign-funded projects are clustering at a faster pace. This not only injects new momentum into industrial upgrading but also facilitates the domestic and international circulation, fully demonstrating that China remains a prime investment destination for global capital and will advance open cooperation with greater sincerity and vigor.
