The world needs more positive interactions and greater engagement among nations to secure a more promising future instead of decoupling, said a British business expert on the sidelines of the ongoing China International Supply Chain Expo (CISCE) in Beijing.

The inaugural CISCE is the world's first national-level expo focusing on supply chains. Themed "Connecting the World for a Shared Future," the event will run until December 2, aiming to promote the building of a stable, secure and smooth global supply chain system through closer partnerships.
