China maps future economy with modern industry, new quality productive forces

In October, the Fourth Plenary Session of the 20th Communist Party of China Central Committee convened in Beijing to layout a blueprint for China's 15th Five-Year Plan (2026-2030) – a roadmap that will shape the nation's next phase of development.

At the heart of this blueprint is a key objective: building a modern industrial system and strengthening the foundations of the real economy.

Throughout the 12th, 13th and 14th Five-Year Plans, the country has steadily advanced new-type industrialization by integrating technological innovation with industrial upgrading, yielding significant breakthroughs that create both domestic opportunities and global impacts.

Faced with a new wave of technological revolution and industrial transformation, China will seize the moment by deepening innovation, strengthening the real economy and accelerating the development of new quality productive forces.
