Green meets digital: Creating new drivers for sustainable development

Green and digital are not two separate paths – they converge toward the same future.

Digital technologies are helping address key challenges in green development, making it more efficient and low-carbon.

At the same time, digitalization itself must go green. "We must embed green practices into the process of digital development and use green approaches to support digital growth," Wang Yao, director general of International Institute of Green Finance at the Central University of Finance and Economics, told CGTN at the 2025 Financial Street Forum.

The integration of technology finance and green finance will play an essential role in driving high-quality development.
